pubmed:abstractText
Immature oocytes taken from ovarian follicles are sometimes used in studies of sperm-zona interaction in species for which it is difficult to obtain ovulated eggs. As yet, however, there has been no quantitative comparison of the sperm binding capacities of immature and ovulated oocytes. We report here that in mice there is no significant difference in the numbers of sperm which bind to the zonae pellucidae of immature and ovulated oocytes in vitro. These results support the use of immature oocytes in studies of sperm-zona interaction. We have also analyzed the sources of variability in sperm binding assays, and we make suggestions for the most efficient design of experiments.
