Abstract

There have been presented the results of the analysis of  various freezing rates effect on morphological integrity and enzymic activity of human spermatozoa. It has been shown that during freezing with the program and with the rate of 2500°C/min the acrosin activity and structural integrity of spermatozoa are kept.
