Effect of antisperm antibodies on computerized semen analysis.
The effect of antisperm antibodies (ASA) in males was determined in 239 men by the use of a computerized semen analyzer (CASA). ASA was assessed using the direct immunobead test (IBT). Sperm variables for men with positive ASA were significantly lower than those with negative results in percentages of motility, velocity, and linearity.
