Abstract excerpt
The level of SH-group oxidation in spermatozoa from the cauda epididymis was measured by a cytofluorometric method in chromosomally normal mice and two chromosome mutants. The first one, a tertiary trisomic karyotype (Ts(1(13]7OH), is characterized by severe oligospermia and high levels (approximately 75%) of malformed spermatozoa. The second, a hybrid between two European feral mouse stocks, is heterozygous for...
