Zinc is one of the functional evaluation indicators for prostate, which is associated with the antibacterial infection. The pathogenic microorganism infections may cause the male prostatitis, appeared as delayed liquefaction of semen and decrease of zinc level in seminal plasma. The production, maturation, activation and capacitation of sperm require the participation of zinc. The lack of zinc in seminal plasma may cause the decrease of sperm motility; the zinc level is correlated with the depolymerization function of nuclear chromatin; maintaining the normal zinc level in the semen would prevent the underlying damage to sperm of the male and female genital tracts; zinc is also one of metals contained in the superoxide dismutase (SOD), which can remove the free radical contained in the semen plasma, thereby inhabiting the lipid peroxidation of cell membrane and protecting the morphosis and functions of sperm against the damage.
