Optimal conditions were established for
RNase
activity measurement. The enzyme was measured in human seminal plasma as well as in spermatozoa. Results suggest that sperm enzyme may come from seminal plasma contamination and that
RNase
may be used as a marker enzyme for seminal plasma contamination. Sodium dodecylsulfate, a reagent utilized to produce the solubilization of the spermatozoa, produced a very strong inhibition of the
RNase
at low concentrations (530 muM).
Zinc sulfate
and EDTA also produced inhibition of the
RNase
activity. Such inhibition may be very useful in future studies of RNA metabolism in human spermatozoa.
