Histochemical studies on tissue sections showed alterations of lectin-binding reactivities in the epididymis, seminal vesicle and ampulla of Brucella ovis-infected rams. These modifications in the carbohydrate composition of organs participating in maturation, transport, and storage of spermatozoa, could be involved in the impaired fertility observed in this disease.
对组织切片的组织化学研究显示，感染绵羊布鲁氏菌的公羊附睾、精囊和壶腹部的凝集素结合反应性发生了改变。参与精子成熟、运输和储存的器官碳水化合物组成的这些变化，可能与该疾病中观察到的生育能力受损有关。
