Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To determine the possible effect of freezing on sperm escape force as measured by laser trap. DESIGN:Controlled clinical study. SETTING:Normal volunteers, academic setting. PATIENTS:Normal, healthy volunteers. INTERVENTION:Sperm selection, freezing and thawing. Measurement of relative (sperm) escape force before and after freezing. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE:Comparison of escape force as a measurement of freezing effects. RESULTS:Wide individual variations noted, with some individuals showing significant increases or decreases. The relative escape force in fresh (76.1 +/- 31.1 mW) and in frozen-thawed samples (75.6 +/- 40.0 mW) were similar. CONCLUSION:Freezing does not affect the relative escape force of normal sperm. Any possible detrimental effect of freezing on sperm may be related to other sperm functions.
