Effect of Heparin and Gelatin Binding Buffalo Seminal Plasma Proteins on Sperm-Egg Binding Assay

Abstract

Effect of heparin and gelatin binding buffalo seminal plasma proteins were assessed on fertility status of
buffalo cauda spermatozoa by sperm-zona pellucida binding test The results showed difference between protein treated and  control groups in the relative number rjf sperm cells bound to the zona pellucida of a batch of in vitro matured
buffalo oocytes. These differences suggest a relationship between the sperm-zona pellucida binding capacity and the fertility related semi~al plasma proteins.
