Chromomycin A<sub>3</sub>‐staining as an indicator of protamine deficiency and fertilization
1 Feb 1996
Abstract excerpt
Mature mammalian spermatozoa have a compact and stable nuclear structure conferred by protamines instead of histones, which are present in all other cellular types. Chromomycin A3 (CMA3) is a useful tool for the detection of protamine deficiency in sperm chromatin. The purpose of this study was to correlate the percentage of spermatozoa staining positively for CMA3 with sperm parameters and in-vitro fertilization...
