To compare the effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and ethyl pyruvate (EP) on experimental testicular ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Randomized, controlled, experimental study. University hospital. Twenty-four mature male Wistar rats. Rats were divided into four groups: control group, torsion-detorsion (T/D) group, EP

Reactive oxygen species are reactive, partly reduced derivatives of molecular oxygen. Important reactive oxygen species in biological systems include superoxide radical anion, hydrogen peroxide, and hydroxyl radical. Peroxynitrite, is another important species in biological systems. A variety of enzymatic and
