This experiment was carried out to clarify the methods of the F-body test in human and the B-body test in buil and hog. The effect of pH and albumin concentration on the migration of X- and Y- sperm was also investigated. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. In the human semen, the frequency of sperm in which an F-body is visible was different by the fluorochrome. Namely, in case of quinacrine mustard, the F-body frequency was 48.8¡43.4 percent (average 49.6%), and in case of quinacrine dihydrochloride, that was 40.7¡50.8 percent (average 42.0%). 2. The frequency of a, pp.rance of B-body was 43.4{pm}1.3 percent in bull semen, and 45.5{pm}0.7 percent in hog semen. 3. A, pp.arance of B-body in bovine semen was increased due to duration of time after washing till 12 hours. 4. Separation of X- and Y- spermatozoa using diluents with different hydrogen ion concentration was impossible. 5. A, pp.arance of B-body separated in medium with 6, 10 and 20% ovalbumin was 51.1{pm}2.4, 50.6{pm}2.5 and 58.2{pm}3.0 percent, respectively, and those values were significiantly higher (p<0.01) than corresponding control values.
