Structure of human sperm DNA and background damage, analysed by in situ enzymatic treatment and digital image analysis
29 Jan 2004
Abstract excerpt
DNA breakage detection-fluorescence in situ hybridization (DBD-FISH) is a procedure to detect and quantify DNA breaks in situ, on a cell-by-cell basis. A comparison between sperm nuclei versus peripheral blood leukocytes using this method demonstrated that the nucleoids from mature human sperm are 12.7 times more sensitive to alkaline denaturation than those from human peripheral blood leukocytes. To investigate...
