| Product Name | Human Anti-sperm antibody (ASAb) ELISA Kit |
|---|---|
| Description | Anti-sperm antibodies are produced by cells of the adaptive immune system and are the cause of approximately 7% of male infertility incidences. They can bind to sperm, inhibiting their movement, stopping recognition and entry into the egg, or targeting sperm for destruction when they reach the female reproductive tract.Over half of men who have undergone a vasectomy develop anti-sperm antibodies.Antisperm antibodies in the form of autoantibodies in male and alloantibodies in female patients directed against sperm antigens may prevent fertilization of the oocyte into the female genital tract and are therefore one of the major reasons for an immunologically induced infertility. Fertility disorders of unknown etiology of male as well as female patients result to a considerably amount (up to 20%) from antisperm antibodies. This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human ASAb. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human ASAb and analogues was observed. |
