Assessing the testicular sperm microbiome: a low-biomass site with abundant contamination

29 Jun 2021

Abstract excerpt

RESEARCH QUESTION: The semen harbours a diverse range of microorganisms. The origin of the seminal microbes, however, has not yet been established. Do testicular spermatozoa harbour microbes and could they potentially contribute to the seminal microbiome composition? DESIGN: The study included 24 samples, comprising a total of 307 testicular maturing spermatozoa. A high-throughput sequencing method targeting V3...
