Membrane fluidity predicts the outcome of cryopreservation of human spermatozoa
1 Oct 2000
Abstract excerpt
Semen cryopreservation is an important procedure in the treatment of human infertility. However, the ability of spermatozoa to survive freeze/thaw processes varies between patients. Cryopreservation-induced stress may result in membrane injury with consequent loss of sperm motility and viability. We investigated the relationship between the physico-chemical state of the human sperm membranes and their tolerance...
