Abstract

Normozoospermic men who do not fertilize human eggs in vitro constitute a clearly identifiable class of occult male factor infertility. We have studied the relationships between in-vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes and the appearance of sperm surface mannose lectin/zona pellucida ligand activity me...
