DNA fragmentation in spermatozoa: a historical review [PDF]
SummarySperm DNA Fragmentation has been extensively studied for more than a decade. In the 1940s the uniqueness of the spermatozoa protein complex which stabilizes the DNA was discovered. In the fifties and sixties, the association between unstable chromatin structure and subfertility was investigated. In the seventies, the impact of induced DNA damage

A perspective on sperm DNA fragmentation [PDF]
The paper on sperm DNA fragmentation by Ashok Agarwal et al . summarizes the currently available DNA fragmentation tests and discusses the role of sperm function tests in the intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) era (1). The authors have summarized the clinical utility of sperm DNA fragmentation test and have provided recommendations based on ...
