THE FERTILIZING LIFE OF SPERMATOZOA IN THE FEMALE TRACT OF RABBITS AND FERRETS TREATED WITH OESTROGEN

Summary.: Female rabbits and ferrets were inseminated long before ovulation occurred, by which time the fertilizing life of spermatozoa was nearly at an end. The proportion of fertilized eggs appeared to be higher in the females treated with oestrogen when the number of spermatozoa inseminated was reduced, but the difference was not statistically significant.
