Abstract
Relationship of in vitro Cervical Mucus Penetration Assay with IgA and IgG Type Antibodies in Cross-bred Cows
Highlights
The cervical mucus (CM) functions as a guide for normal sperm to enter the uterus and may act as a filter to prevent the passage of abnormal November 2014 | Volume 2 | Issue 11 | Page 606 spermatozoa into the upper part of reproductive tract
Investigations in veterinary field regarding the influence of antisperm antibodies (ASA) in CM on fertility rates are very few.relationship of in vitro cervical mucus penetration test (CMPT) was analysed with IgA and IgG type antibodies, detected by SpermMar test in cervical mucus of cross-bred cows
Detection of IgG and IgA Type Antibodies by Sperm Mar Test Binding of latex particles to head, tail or both was detected in the presence of blood serum or cervical mucus, which indicated the development of ASA against sperm surface proteins (Figure 1)
