Semen Alkalinity

Semen Alkalinity is a physiological parameter representing the degree to which semen exhibits a basic pH, typically ranging from 7.2 to 8.0, primarily due to the presence of alkaline buffers such as bicarbonate and prostatic secretions, which neutralize the acidic vaginal environment to enhance sperm viability and motility.
