title: Antisperm antibodies detection with the immunobead test as viewed by TEM.
abstract: The immunobead test (IBT) was used for the detection of antisperm antibodies. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to study ultrastructural aspects of this technique. This brief communication aims to present some ultrastructural evidence using transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
