TI  - Tail beat frequency of human sperm: evaluated with sperm head fixation method and 
      computer-assisted semen analysis.
PG  - 171-6
AB  - Tail beat frequency (TBF) of individual sperm in 15 semen samples was evaluated 
      with a sperm head fixation method (SHFM). Motility parameters of the semen 
      samples were also measured with computer-assisted semen analysis (CASA). The TBF 
      obtained from SHFM correlated best with beat cross-frequency obtained from CASA. 
      The TBF measured soon after sperm head fixation also correlated well with total 
      motility and rapid motility, but not with progress motility and critical motility 
      measured with CASA. SHFM is a simple method for the study of tail beat frequency 
      and the TBF of individual sperm is closely related to the overall motility in a 
      semen sample.
