  • Title: Sperm antibodies, semen quality, and male infertility.
    Author: Pretorius E, Franken D.
    Journal: Arch Androl; 1989; 22(1):61-5. PubMed ID: 2712643.
    Abstract:
    Twelve couples who underwent infertility investigations at the Universitas Hospital in Bloemfontein were examined using several tests: postcoital (PCT), sperm-cervical-mucus-contact (SCMC-T), indirect immunobead (IBT), tray-agglutination (TAT), and sperm-immobilization procedures (SIT). Two factors played a role during the immunologic evaluation of a couple: semen quality and the intensity of the antibody in the cervical mucus or seminal plasma.
