Abstract
The aims of this project were: to determine sperm subpopulations (ES) by four methodological criteria (MC) through computer-assisted semen analysis (CASA) of sperm kinetics (MC1 - five ES), to access plasma membrane integrity (MC2) and acrosome reaction (four ES); to quantify the percentage of apoptotic sperm (MC3 - four ES) and sperm undergoing capacitation (MC4) (membrane stability and …
