Table 4 Mean values of sperm count and motility in treated male mice with BPA and/or FXO for 28 consecutive days

From: Flaxseed oil as a protective agent against bisphenol-A deleterious effects in male mice

Treatments	Sperm count (10⁶/ml)	Sperm motility (%)
Control	385.00 ± 32.18^ab	90.00 ± 5.00^ab
Vehicle	382.00 ± 37.80^ab	93.00 ± 2.64^a
FXO (1 mL/kg bw)	385.00 ± 33.42^ab	88.33 ± 2.88^ab
BPA (50 mg/kg bw)	281.33 ± 32.01^c	55.00 ± 5.00^d
FXO before BPA	387.67 ± 7.63^a	88.00 ± 2.64^ab
FXO with BPA	340.00 ± 5.00^b	79.00 ± 1.00^c
FXO after BPA	365.00 ± 6.08^ab	84.00 ± 1.00^bc

Data are expressed as means ± SD. Mean values in the same column parameter bearing the same superscript do not differ significantly (P ≤ 0.05)
