Variation in mean human sperm length is linked with semen characteristics

28 Oct 2012

Abstract excerpt

STUDY QUESTION: Are there any links between the length measurements of sperm components (head, midpiece, flagellum, total sperm length and the flagellum:head ratio) and data obtained during semen analysis? SUMMARY ANSWER: Both the mean measurement and the variation in the lengths of sperm components are related to characteristics of semen. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Studies in non-human species have shown that sperm...
