Fast and easy-to-use sperm vitality testing method
Vitaltest® allows the evaluation of the quality of the sperm membrane and the differentiation between live spermatozoa (intact membranes) and dead ones (affected membranes).
Why Vitaltest?
Rapid application, reliable, and low-cost technologies are essential for quantifying the state of the cell populations. The viability of spermatozoa in any ejaculate is related to the presence or absence of altered membranes.
Its use is advisable for patients with progressive motility below 40% to evaluate the proportion of live and dead spermatozoa. This test is used as a check on the motility evaluation, as the percentage of dead cells should not exceed that of immotile spermatozoa.
Cases of necrozoospermia are related to epididymal pathology (Wilton et al, 1988; Correa-Pérez et al, 2004). A high percentage of vital but immotile spermatozoa is indicative of structural defects in the flagellum (Chemes and Rawe, 2003).
- Immediate determination* of the quality of the membrane of spermatozoa in the ejaculate.
- Determination of necrozoospermia.
- The incubation of sperm with the reagent is not necessary.
