Human sperm function in the ejaculate following vasectomy.

Semen specimens were obtained for analysis from nine men immediately before vasectomy and 3 days following the vasectomy procedure. After vasectomy there was a significant decrease in seminal sperm concentration, percentage of sperm motility, and mean swimming speed. In seven of nine cases the spermatozoa did not survive overnight incubation in capacitation media, and in no case was penetration of zonafree hamster oocytes observed 3 days after vasectomy.

Penetration of zona-free hamster oocytes by ejaculated cryopreserved gorilla spermatozoa.

Semen obtained by electroejaculation from two lowland gorillas were cryopreserved in TEST yolk to evaluate the ability of spermatozoa to penetrate zona-free hamster oocytes. Thawed semen was processed through a two-layer Percoll density gradient to obtain motile spermatozoa for the SPA. The processed sperm penetrated greater than 25% of the zona-free hamster oocytes. Thus, the use of TEST yolk to cryopreserve gorilla semen and processing the thawed semen through Percoll gradient to concentrate motile spermatozoa may facilitate sperm capacitation and the ability to penetrate oocytes.
