Spermagglutinins in serum and seminal fluid of bulls and their relationship to fertility classification.

Twenty-five satisfactory and 25 unsatisfactory potential breeder bulls were examined with a modified Shulman spermagglutination test for the presence of spermagglutinating antibodies in their serum and seminal fluid. This was done to determine whether antibodies to spermatozoa were a contributing factor to classification of the bull as an unsatisfactory potential breeder. No correlation was found between classification as an unsatisfactory potential breeder and the presence of spermagglutinating antibodies.
