AB  - Simultaneously with in vitro fertilization (IVF), the acridine orange (AO) test 
      was performed on 51 patients according to the method of Tejada et al. This test 
      allows a differentiation of spermatozoa with intact (double-stranded) and 
      denatured (single-sanded) DNA. A significant relationship was demonstrated 
      between the percentage of green-fluorescing (intact) sperm and the results of 
      IVF. For both, the groups with (n = 40) and without (n = 11) fertilization of 
      human eggs, a positive correlation was found between AO-test and sperm motility, 
      and AO-test and normal sperm morphology.
