Intraluminal fluids from the hamster seminiferous tubules and cauda, corpus, and caput
epididymidis were obtained in vivo using micropuncture techniques. The effect of vasectomy on the osmolarity of these fluids was
studied two weeks and four months postvasectomy. There was an overall decrease in
the osmolarity of reproductive fluids at two
weeks postvasectomy that was not apparent at
four months postvasectomy.
Key words: testis, epididymis, vasectomy, osmolarity, hamster
