Specifications
Analysis of fresh and thawed sperm samples. |
Sample volume and identification data can be inserted with barcode reader or manually. |
Animal database included. |
Disposable: Any counting chamber like Leja®, included Segré-Silbergerg effect correction factor. |
Sample concentration and motility are analyzed under phase contrast microscopy, with the 10x negative phase objective. |
Spermatozoa are automatically detected and analysed. |
Simultaneously, rapid morphology analysis can be performed if SCA® droplets module is installed. |
Morphology can be analysed manually, selecting the abnormal spermatozoa displayed in phase contrast positive at 20x. |
40x phase contrast objective is used for the acrosome analysis. |
Modifiable parametres: Spermatozoa head area, elongation, analysis chamber, doses useful spermatozoa, VCL, STR, progressive, doses correction factor after morphology and acrosome analysis. |
Customized fields for morphology description. |
FPS capture velocity: 25fps. |
Analysis time per field is one second. |
Concentration can also be manually registered to the database , if calculated with any photometer. |
Warning message about ratio sperm quality, difference in doses analysis or Maximum spermatozoa per straws. |
Images and videos can be exported. |
Parameters analyzed
Counting, Kinematic parameters and morphology. |
