Studies aided by transmission electron microscopy were made in order to evaluate the occurrence and efficiency of the human follicular fluid in the activation of the processes leading to the acrosome reaction; quantitative, qualitative and morphological data and relative evaluations are here presented. The effects of the human follicular fluid were compared with those determined by other types of treatment, semen untreated, Pellet-Swim-up, and Centrifugation on Discontinuous Percoll Gradient. The transmission electron microscope observations permitted to evaluate the percentage of sperm with an activation of the acrosome reaction in the different groups. The analysis of the data showed a statistically relevant difference (P < 0.001) among the first group (Control group) and the SU group, the MP group and the hFF group, regarding the sperm with AR activation. The sperm treatment with 50% diluted hFF represents an important option to the preparation protocols of the semen samples useful for ART.
