Boar spermatozoa were incubated in a capacitation medium and examined for the presence of filamentous actin by using the fluorescent probe NBD-phallacidin. F-adin was not observed in uncapacitated sperm, but developed in most regions of the cell during the capacitation period. Fluorescent staining w

## Abstract Although mammalian spermatozoa can be capacitated in vitro appropriately for the accomplishment of fertilization in vitro, it has not been established whether such spermatozoa can fertilize immediately in the Fallopian tube nor whether their fertilizing ability is comparable to that of
## Abstract A variety of treatment procedures was utilized to identify the origin and composition of the vesicles formed during the acrosome reaction of boar spermatozoa. Whether the acrosome reaction occurred spontaneously or was induced chemically the vesicles were hybrid vesicles composed of rou
