Abstract
The rheological behavior of human semen is overlooked and essentially unexplored in the scientific literature. Here, we provide the first quantitative experimental evidence that post-liquafaction normospermic human semen behaves as a viscoelastic fluid and the shear moduli can be scaled according to the weak-gel model.
