Post-activation time (s)<br />
Figure 3. Effect of the ion composition of the activation media on motility and<br />
velocity parameters at different post-activation times: 10, 20, 40, 60 and 80 s.<br />
Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n=9). Different letters indicate significant<br />
differences between the different media at the same post-activation time.<br />
Abbreviations: TM, total motility; PM, progressive motility; VCL, curvilinear velocity;<br />
VSL, straight line velocity; VAP, average path velocity.<br />
