ABSTRACT:
A method for assaying the fertilization potential of a mammalian ovum that has been removed from an ovarian follicle, together with a portion of accompanying follicular fluid. The method includes the step of measuring the concentration of at least one selected glycosaminoglycan in the follicular fluid accompanying the ovum to be tested. That concentration is then compared with concentrations of the same glycosaminoglycan characteristic of the follicular fluid of atretic and non-atretic follicles.
