Abstract

IT has been, pointed out that mammalian sperm represents an ideal tissue for exploring, under well-defined conditions in vitro, the intricate biochemical and physiological mechanisms underlying the viability and senescence of living cells¹. Efforts to move in this direction have been restricted by the necessity of having to maintain mammalian sperm in complex, undefined media and at temperatures which suppress metabolic activity.
