Studies of chromosome and genome biology often focus on condensed chromatin in the
form of chromosomes and neglect the non-dividing cells. Even when interphase nuclei are …

In recent years, the combination of synthetic micro‐and nanomaterials with spermatozoa as
functional components has led to the development of tubular and helical spermbots …

The evaluation of the morphology of human spermatozoa varies widely between and
sometimes even within laboratories. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the …

This paper describes a self-contained integrated microfluidic system that can separate
motile sperm from small samples that are difficult to handle using conventional sperm …

The first edition of the Textbook of Assisted Reproductive Techniques was published in
2001. As the textbook now enters its sixth edition, some 45 years since the birth of Louise …

The measurement or evaluation and clinical significance of human sperm morphology has
always been and still is a controversial aspect of the semen analysis for the determination of …

A microfluidic device was designed with two parallel laminar flow channels where non-
motile spermatozoa and debris would flow along their initial streamlines and exit one outlet …

Male reproductive success is determined by the ability of males to gain sexual access to
females and by their ability to fertilize ova. Among polygynous mammals, males differ …

Mechanisms of mammalian sperm migration through the female reproductive tract and ovum
vestments are described. The perspective is biophysical as well as biochemical and …

Objective To review recent studies on the development of new tests of human sperm
function and evaluation of which sperm characteristics are most important for fertilization in …
