Shorter4: Male reproduction in 12 Collaborative Cross strains of mice: Organ weights and sperm count, motility, and morphology (2020)

Shorter JR, O'Brien DA, Pardo-Manuel de Villena F   With: Pan W, Odet F, Aylor DL, Kao C-Y, Fu C-P, Greenstein S, Bell TA, Stevans AM, Patel S, Cates SE, Shaw GD, MIller DR, McMillian L

         
Male reproductive parameters were assessed. This project contains data for organ weights and sperm count, motility, and morphology while Shorter6 contains Computer Assisted Sperm Analysis (CASA) data.

Procedures conducted:
• body weight 
• organ weights  Male reproductive organ weights. Testes, seminal vesicles, epididymis + vas deferens.
• sperm count  Sperm count. Hemocytometer.
• microscopy  Sperm motility
• histopathology  Male reproductive histopathology. Percent normal, abnormal sperm.
