Acrosome reaction and chromatin integrity as additional parameters of semen analysis to predict fertilization and blastocyst rates

Abstract Background Traditional semen parameters have shown little to none predictive value for fertilization and blastocyst viability for a successful pregnancy. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the usefulness of incorporating the acrosome reaction (AR) and chromatin integrity to...
