This study was designed to investigate the protective effect of Ellagic Acid on Epididymal Sperms Quality and DNA Deformity in mature rats exposed to Cadmium Chloride. The experiment includes a total number of Sixty (60) male Albino Wistar rats weighting (180-220 g) were used in this experiment. Their ages ranged between (10-14) weeks. Rats were divided into four equal groups which administrated orally and daily for six weeks as follows: 100mg EA Kg B.wt, 5mg /Kg B.wt Cd, 100mg EA + 5mg Cd Kg B.wt, and tap water for group 1 (T1), group 2 (T2), group 3 (T3) and control group (C) respectively. The experiment was lasted for 6th weeks. Semen samples were collected after 2, 4 and 6 weeks for estimation sperms parameters. The results revealed a significant decrease of Sperm concentration and Sperms Motility in T2 as compared with control increase significantly of Sperm concentration and Sperms Motility in T1 and the results showed a significant increase of Sperms Abnormalities and Sperms Immotility in T2 with a significant decrease of Sperms Abnormalities and Sperms Immotility in T1 as compared with control. Depending on the current results and discussion, Conclusions are: Ellagic acid is an effective antioxidant against the toxic effect of Cadmium chloride on testicular function and Sperm Parameters.
