The requirements for performing IUI and IVF when it comes to yield, and percentage of motile
sperm can differ.
Optimize the results by using a 40/80 gradient when a maximum yield is wanted for IUI and
40/90 for the highest percentage of motile sperm for IVF or ICSI.
PureSperm™ owes its performance to a precisely engineered colloidal silica system. The silica particles are synthetically produced and undergo silanization, a chemical process that stabilizes their surface and prevents aggregation. This creates a uniform, stable...
As the holiday season approaches and many of us are longing for colder winter weather, it feels fitting to highlight how Sperm CryoProtec protects sperm during the freezing and thawing process. The role of glucose in Sperm CryoProtec Osmotic balance: Glucose acts as...
Light-Protective Packaging for Embryo and Gamete Safety To ensure the highest level of safety for embryos and gametes, NidOil™ is packaged in amber, screw-top bottles that protect against light-induced changes. This precaution is based on documented cases where...
Like the gut, the uterus contains a mix of bacteria—known as the endometrial microbiome. Though once thought to be sterile, research shows the uterus hosts beneficial and harmful bacteria. Why It Matters for Pregnancy An imbalance in uterine bacteria, especially low...
This unique microbial community resides within the uterus and plays a vital role in reproductive health. In a balanced environment, Lactobacillus species dominate, producing lactic acid that helps maintain an acidic pH and suppress the growth of potentially harmful...
Bubbles seen in IVF media after transport do not generally affect the quality. They are often a result from the presence of human serum albumin (hSA)- a common additive in culture media, like in PureSperm Wash. HSA contains both hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions....
Two types of high quality sperm separations Nidacons product SpeediKit and a regular density gradient both serve the purpose of creating high quality sperm separations however, there are some distinct advantages to SpeediKit over a traditional density gradient. Key...
All solutions at room temperature Prepare the gradient using 2 ml layers. Prepare the gradient no more than 30 minutes before use to prevent the layers from mixing. Avoid overloading—do not exceed the recommended 1.5 ml of sample Follow the recommended centrifugation...
Refrigerated Incubation (10–60 minutes): Incubating sperm in the refrigerator prior to time on liquid nitrogen for 10 to 60 minutes improves survival rates. While the difference between 10 and 60 minutes is slight, there is a significant increase in survival when...
Additional information regarding Mouse Embryo Assay (MEA) results on day 6 will be provided on the Quality Assurance certificates for Nidoil. The Day 6 (eMEA) results offer an extra layer of safety assessment, enhancing our ability to detect potential toxicity and...
