Background Semen preparation techniques for assisted reproduction, including intrauterine
insemination (IUI), were developed to separate the motile morphological normal …

5.3 million American couples of reproductive age (9%) are affected by infertility, among
which male factors account for up to 50% of cases, which necessitates the identification of …

Contents The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the swim up and Percoll
methods to select frozen–thawed bull spermatozoa with high quality membrane and …

We have compared the efficacy of Percoll and Sephadex G-10 for the enrichment of viable,
motile spermatozoa in three types of ram semen samples: normospermic, asthenospermic …

Selecting a population of spermatozoa by the swim‐up technique yields, after freezing and
thawing, a population of cells that contains proportionally more spermatozoa which are …

Objective To study the effect of pentoxifylline on sperm motility, oocyte fertilization, embryo
cleavage, and quality as well as pregnancy outcome on asthenospermic patients …

The effective separation of X‐and Y‐bearing chromosome spermatozoa has been a topic of
major attraction to a number of scientific disciplines. Approaches have typically been based …

Prolonged exposure of spermatozoa to seminal plasma (SP) has been found to have
adverse effects on sperm function. Therefore, the separation of mammalian spermatozoa …

Background The hypoosmotic swelling test (HOST) was recommended as a predictive test
for in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcome. These results, however, were controversial and the …

A comparison was made of three sperm separation techniques—direct swim-up, mini-
Percoll, and Sephadex G-10—on semen parameters, including count,% motility, forward …
