Comparison between immunobead test, indirect immunofluorescence and a quantitive ELISA for the diagnosis of antisperm...

Immunobead Test, Indirect Immunofluorescence and ELISA, have been used to research antisperm antibodies in serum of 105 fertile male patients and in serum of 109 infertile male patients. Antisperm antibodies were present among 12.8% of infertile patients and 0.9% of infertile patients. The immunological factor is certainly an important factor in the aetiology of male hypofertility.
