In assisted reproductive technology (ART), the aim of sperm cells' preparation is to select
competent spermatozoa with the highest fertilization potential and in this context, the …

BACKGROUND ICSI is currently the most commonly used assisted reproductive technology,
accounting for 70–80% of the cycles performed. This extensive use, even excessive, is partly …

BACKGROUND In natural conception only a few sperm cells reach the ampulla or the site of
fertilization. This population is a selected group of cells since only motile cells can pass …

Almost 50% of the infertility cases are due to male factors. Assisted reproductive
technologies (ARTs) allow to overcome the incapacity of these patients' spermatozoa to …

Offering the latest information in magnetic nanoparticle (MNP) research, Magnetic
Nanoparticles: From Fabrication to Clinical Applications provides a comprehensive review …

Nano-sized magnetic particles are increasingly being used across a wide spectrum of
biomedical fields. Upon functionalization to enable specific binding, magnetic particles and …

Male infertility often involves idiopathic or unknown causes, leading to an increasing
demand for assisted reproduction technologies (ART). Conventional sperm sorting …

Purpose To determine whether the use of Magnetic Activated Cell Sorting (MACS) as a
sperm selection technique improves ART success rates in couples undergoing assisted …

Ferrofluids are a type of nanometer-scale functional material with fluidity and
superparamagnetism. They are composed of ferromagnetic particles, surfactants, and base …

BACKGROUND Current routine semen preparation techniques do not inclusively target all
intrinsic sperm characteristics that may impact the fertilization potential. In order to address …
