An easy assay for quantification of Y chromosome-bearing sperm (Y-sperm) is needed, especially to monitor sperm separation techniques. In the present study a tritiated bovine male-specific DNA fragment was tested for identification of Y-sperm by in situ hybridization. A protocol for in situ hybridization to bovine sperm was developed and used to study the proportion of Y-sperm of 12 bulls. The usefulness of the method in optimization of sperm separation procedures is illustrated through analysis of fractions of sperm separated by Percoll density gradient centrifugation.
需要一种简便的方法来定量含Y染色体的精子(Y精子),尤其是用于监测精子分离技术。在本研究中,对一个氚标记的牛雄性特异性DNA片段进行了测试,以通过原位杂交鉴定Y精子。制定了一种用于牛精子原位杂交的方案,并用于研究12头公牛的Y精子比例。通过分析经Percoll密度梯度离心分离的精子组分,说明了该方法在优化精子分离程序中的实用性。
