Establishment of a capillary–cumulus model to study the selection of sperm for fertilization by the cumulus oophorus

BACKGROUND: Spermatozoa have to traverse the cumulus oophorus before fertilization in vivo. Evidence suggests that the cumulus oophorus plays an important role in the fertilization process. We describe the establishment of a capillary–cumulus oophorus model with which to study the action of cumulus...
