The seminal plasma provides a nutritive and protective medium for the spermatozoa during their journey through the female reproductive tract. The normal environment of the vagina is a hostile one for sperm cells, as it is very [[acidic]] (from the native microflora producing [[lactic acid]]), viscous, and patrolled by immune cells. The components in the seminal plasma attempt to compensate for this hostile environment. Basic [[amines]] such as [[putrescine]], [[spermine]], [[spermidine]] and [[cadaverine]] are responsible for the smell and flavor of semen. These alkaline bases counteract the acidic environment of the vaginal canal, and protect [[DNA]] inside the sperm from acidic denaturation. |

Most semen is white in color, but grey or even yellowish semen can be normal as well. Blood in the semen can cause a pink or reddish color and should be checked out by a doctor. |

After ejaculation, semen first goes through a clotting process and then becomes more liquid. It is theorized that the initial clotting helps keep the semen in the vaginal canal, but liquefaction frees the sperm to make their longer journey to the ova. Immediately after ejaculation semen is typically a sticky, jelly-like liquid often forming globules. Within 5 to 40 minutes it will become more watery and liquid before finally drying.<ref>{{cite web |

It is also hypothesized that components of semen, such as the [[spermatozoa]] as well as the seminal [[blood plasma|plasma]], can cause [[immunosuppression]] in the body when introduced to the [[bloodstream]] or [[lymph]]. Evidence for this dates back to [[1898]], when [[Elie Metchnikoff]] injected a [[guinea pig]] with its own and foreign guinea pig sperm, finding that an [[antibody]] was produced in response; however the antibody was inactive, pointing to a suppression response by the [[immune system]]. |

Further research, such as that by S. Mathur and J.M. Goust, demonstrated that non-preexisting antibodies were produced in humans in response to the sperm. These antibodies mistakenly recognized native [[T lymphocytes]] as ''foreign'' [[antigens]], and consequently the T lymphocytes would fall under attack by the body's [[B lymphocytes]].<ref>{{cite journal | author = Mathur S, Goust J, Williamson H, Fudenberg H | title = Cross-reactivity of sperm and T lymphocyte antigens. | journal = Am J Reprod Immunol | volume = 1 | issue = 3 | pages = 113-8 | year = 1981 | id = PMID 6175235}}</ref> |

The best way to test for human seminal plasma sensitivity is to use a [[condom]] during intercourse. If symptoms dissipate with the use of a condom, it is possible that a sensitivity to semen is present. Mild cases of semen [[allergy]] can often be overcome by repeated exposure to seminal fluid.<ref>{{cite journal | author = Weidinger S, Ring J, Köhn F | title = IgE-mediated allergy against human seminal plasma. | journal = Chem Immunol Allergy | volume = 88 | issue = | pages = 128-38 | year = | id = PMID 16129942}}</ref> In more severe cases, it is important to seek the advice of a physician, particularly in the event that a couple is trying to conceive, in which case, [[artificial insemination]] may be indicated. |

[[Dew]] was once thought to be a sort of rain that fertilized the earth and, in time, became a metaphor for semen. The [[Bible]] employs the term “dew” in this sense in such verses as [[Song of Solomon]] 5:2 and [[Psalm]] 110:3, declaring, in the latter verse, for example, that the people should follow only a king who was virile enough to be full of the “dew” of youth. |

Semen, sehari-hari disebut pula mani, air mani, cairan putih, atau pejuh, adalah cairan yang membawa sel-sel sperma yang dikeluarkan oleh organ-organ seksual jantan. Fungsi utama semen adalah untuk mengantarkan sel-sel sperma untuk membuahi sel telur yang dihasilkan oleh individu betina. Proses pengeluaran semen dalam situasi normal disebut ejakulasi.
Aspek-aspek fisiologis
Pembuahan internal dan eksternal
Tergantung pada spesiesnya, spermatozoa dapat menyuburkan sel telur secara eksternal ataupun internal. Dalam pembuahan eksternal, spermatozoa menyuburkan sel telur secara langsung, di luar organ-organ seksual si betina. Ikan betina, misalnya, menebarkan ovumnya ke lingkungan akuatiknya, yang kemudian dibuahi oleh air mani dari ikan jantan.
Namun dalam pembuahan internal, pembuahan terjadi di dalam organ-organ seksual pihak perempuan/betina. Pembuahan internal terjadi setelah inseminasi pihak perempuan/betina oleh pihak lelaki/jantan melalui kopulasi. Di kalangan binatang bertulang belakang yang rendah (amfibi, reptil, burung dan mamalia monotrem), kopulasi dicapai melalui kloaka jantan dan betina. Di kalangan hewan berkantung (marsupial) dan mamalia plasental, kopulasi berlangsung melalui vagina.
Komposisi semen manusia
Semen berasal dari dua komponen: sperma dan plasma seminal. Plasma seminal, pada gilirannya, dihasilkan oleh kontribusi dari seminal vesicle, kelenjar prostat, dan bulbourethral.
