The Effect of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus Isolated from Seminal Fluid of Infertile Patients on Mouse Sperm Function Tests and in vitro Fertilization

The present study was focusing on the effect of seminal fluid infection on sperm functions and fertilizing capacity of mouse spermatozoa. Two kinds of bacteria were isolated from seminal fluid of 14 infertile patients (23-51 years) during their attendance at the Institute of Embryo Research and Infertility Treatment involves Staphylococcus aureus (Staph. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli), which were identified by biochemical tests and API systems.
