Sperm activation / Sperm viability

The total number of progressively motile sperm after sample treatment is calculated. The most suitable assisted reproduction technique is then selected based on this number.

The semen sample is treated in a way that only the progressively motile sperm are isolated. The total number of progressively motile sperm after sample treatment is calculated. The most suitable assisted reproduction technique is then selected based on this number.

After the sample is treated, the viability of the sperm is checked within the first 24 hours, usually with measurements every 3-4 hours. The test evaluates the ability of sperm to remain progressive within the first 24 hours, a fact that makes it possible to coordinate intercourse with ovulation, but also schedule insemination or multiple inseminations.
