Microfluidic systems with the ability to mimic the female reproductive tract (FRT) and sperm
features have emerged as promising methods to separate sperm with higher quality for the …

Isolating high-quality motile sperm cells is considered to be the main prerequisite for a
successful artificial pregnancy. Microfluidics has emerged as a promising platform capable …

Sperm sorting for separation of motile sperms is one of the key step processes in assisted
reproductive technology. In this article, we propose a microfluidic device for sperm …

For conception, sperm cells travel towards the oocyte. This journey is accomplished by only
a few sperm cells, following various guidance mechanisms. Of these mechanisms, rheotaxis …

Sperm selection is crucial to assisted reproduction, influencing the success rate of the
treatment cycle and offspring health. However, in the current clinical sperm selection …

A progressive motile sperm sorting device with a diffuser-type microfluidic channel is
proposed to improve fertilization in assisted reproductive technologies. When sperm cells …

Quite puzzling issue in biology is how sperm cells are selected naturally where human
sperm has to maintain a correct swimming behavior during the various stages of …

Sorting high-quality sperm with intact DNA, normal morphology, and active motility is crucial
for clinically assisted reproductive technology, which influences the success of treatment …

The objective of this work was to elucidate whether a sperm selection method that combines
rheotaxis and microfluidics can improve the selection of spermatozoa over density gradient …

The ultimate challenge for assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) is to select the most
competent sperm population from a semen sample in an efficient way. In this paper, we …
