Automation of human semen analysis using a novel artificial intelligence optical microscopic technology

Abstract Current semen analysis still commonly depends on a manual microscopy method in clinical laboratories worldwide. However, some of the major disadvantages of this technique are that it is labour‐intensive, subjective, laboratory‐based and time‐consuming. Although computer‐assisted semen analysers (CASAs) have enabled partialautomation of routine semen analysis, they lack wider acceptance due to their complicated operation. […]

Live Morphology Imaging is a Better Approach for Observing Sperm Head Osmolality-induced Morphological Changes Compared with Diff-Quik Staining Method

Objetctive To compare the live morphology imaging technology of LensHooke® X1 PRO Semen Quality Analyzer with Diff-Quik staining in sperm head morphometric analysis. Introduction The dimensions of spermatozoa, especially head parameters, play a pivotal role for the sperm morphology assessment according to WHO 5th manual for human sperm morphology assessment.Diff-Quik is one of the staining […]

High Levels of Oxidation-Reduction Potential in Frozen-Thawed Human Semen Are Significantly Correlated With Poor Post-Thaw Sperm Quality

Abstract This study examined the relationship between oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) in frozen-thawed semen and the post-thaw sperm parameters. Levels of ORP were measured in 25 samples from men presenting for routine infertility work-up and were expressed as millivolt (mV)/106 sperm/ml. Frozen-thawed samples were examined for post-thaw total motility (TM%), progressive motility (PM%), total sperm count (TSC) […]
