Nntp-Posting-Host: squid.cs.ucla.edu Archive-Number: 3055 I plan to do some experiments to measure the motility of Human sperm by using a technique involving laser light scattering. I am trained as a physicist and I am requesting information how to handle human sperm samples obtained from donors in light of the aids scare and the many other infectious diseases that are assosciated with sperm. I plan to work with nonAides related cases, but I would like to know what precautions should be taken in the lab. James Frost Computer InformationsSystem Dept.
