Abstract :By definition, white noise insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(WN); is a type of sound that consists of a combination of various frequencies. Noise is an important source of environmental stress for humans and other living things and has a strong stimulating effect on light, circadian rhythm, hormonal, and neuro-behavioral levels. When faced with stressful situations, organisms produce a substantial quantity of free radicals, leading to alterations in the oxidative system. The objective of this research is to examine how environmental stressors like WN and light impact the activities of enzymes involved in testicular carbonic anhydrase insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CA);, catalase insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CAT);, and glutathione peroxidase insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(GPx);. A total of 18 male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups. The first was the control group insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(not exposed to stress, kept at 12/12 light-dark cycle and 24±2°C normal ambient temperature);. The second group, known as the WN 60\` group, experienced 60 minutes of white noise exposure per day for 14 consecutive days at 90 dB. The third group, referred to as the WN 60\` + non daylight group, underwent 60 minutes of white noise exposure at 90 dB combined with 24 hours of continuous light exposure every other day. At the conclusion of the study, the testicular tissues were homogenized and centrifuged, followed by the spectrophotometric measurement of enzyme activities. As a result, when we compared the control group with both WN and WN + light exposure; A decrease was observed for CA enzyme in both applications, and an increase was observed in CAT and GPx enzymes in both applications. As a result, when we compared the control group with both BG and BG + light exposure; A decrease was observed for CA enzyme in both applications, and an increase was observed in CAT and GPx enzymes in both applications.
