The relationship between critical evaluation of sperm morphology and the TYB-optimized zona free hamster oocyte sperm penetration assay
The objective of this study was to analyse the relationship between the percentage of spermatozoa in semen with normal morphology, assessed using the Tygerberg criteria, and sperm fertilizing ability assessed using the TYB-optimized zona free hamster oocyte sperm penetration assay (TYB-optimized SPA...

In conclusion, the percentage of spermatozoa with normal morphology assessed using Tygerberg criteria (> 14% A forms) are predictive of the results in the TYB-optimized SPA. However, sperm morphology appears to be a better predictor when it is normal than when it is abnormal. 1999 https://bibliotecadigital.exactas.uba.ar/collection/paper/document/paper_01056263_v22_n5_p329_VazquezLevin http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12110/paper_01056263_v22_n5_p329_VazquezLevin |
