I n a previous paper (Tang, '31) the oxygen tension-oxygen consumption curve for unfertilized arbacia eggs was determined. The data were analyzed in terms of equations relating oxygen consumption to diffusion in a single cell (Gerard, '31). The critical oxygen tension, C,, necessary to just insure m
## Abstract Univalent antisperm antibodies (IF ab) markedly inhibited the fertilizing capacity of sperm when tested on intact, dejellied, and βdemembranatedβ __Arbacia punctulata__ eggs. Sperm motility and egg jelly penetration were not affected by IFab. Antifertilizin was excluded as the essential
