This is Modal Title
Crush Side Motility
The percentage of live normal motile sperm. This is measured at the crush side.
We Keep things warm
Sperm don't like the cold. That's why we use a heated microscope stage and a laboratory incubator to ensure the sperm is given the highest possible motility score.
Normal Morphology
The percentage of morphological normal cells in a fixed sample. Samples are sent to the lab for morphology assessment.
Quality Equipment
We use a modern olympus phase contrast microscope for sperm motility analysis. We also us Isperm(TM) for CASA (computer assisted sperm assessment) when necessary.
