Abstract

Epididymal spermatozoa of the golden hamster can be capacitated in vitro in the presence of oviduct fluid from the oestrous female hamster (Yanagimachi & Chang, 1964; Yanagimachi, 1966; Barros & Austin, 1967), follicular fluid from mature ovarian follicles of the hamster (Barros & Austin, 1967; Yanagimachi, 1969a), detoxified bovine follicular fluid (Gwatkin & Andersen, 1969; Yanagimachi, 1969b), and detoxified blood sera of the hamster and some other species (Yanagimachi, 1970). When incubated in media containing these biological fluids, the spermatozoa agglutinate head to head within ½ hr. About 2½ to 3 hr later, agglutinated spermatozoa disperse spontaneously and free spermatozoa show an extraordinarily active movement. In the majority (sometimes, 100%) of these spermatozoa, the acrosomal reaction is in progress or has been completed and the spermatozoa are ready to penetrate the

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
