ATP and ADP were measured by a bioluminescent method in human ejaculated spermatozoa from 31 normal donors and oligozoospermic patients. ATP and ADP expressed for the sperm total number were significantly correlated (P less than 0.001). ATP snd ADP levels were found significantly correlated with the total motile spermatozoa and with the total viable cells (respectively P less than 0.001 and P less than 0.001 for ATP and P less than 0.001 and P less than 0.001 for ADP). ATP/ADP ratio was found significantly lower in subjects with sperm motility less than 50% (P = 0.024) and total viable cells less than 80% (P = 0.026).
