Interference of human spermatozoal motility and spermatozoal agglutination by Candida albicans
The Journal of Urology
|November 1, 1977
Abstract:
Human spermatozoa were exposed to concentrations of 10(2) to 10(7) organisms per ml. Candida albicans. A subsequent striking decrease in spermatozoal motility and significant agglutination were observed. The possible role of mycotic genital tract infections in human infertility is considered.
