SCA Motility and concentration for Veterinary

SCA® Motility and concentration is a module for the automatic analysis of the sperm motility and concentration in an animal semen sample.

This analysis module is also
available for Human and Toxicology.

Suitable for domestic animals, most of the vertebrates (mammals, avian, reptile, amphibian, fish) and invertebrates (e.g. mussels, oysters, sea urchins).

SCA® Motility and concentration main features

Automatic analysis

SCA® Motility and concentration detects the spermatozoa automatically.

Phase contrast analysis

Samples are analysed under negative phase contrast.

Analysis under fluorescence

Fluorescence capture recommendable for those samples containing egg yolk or milk based extenders.

Count and motility simultaneously

Accurate count and motility analysis are carried simultaneously.

Kinematic parameters

Motile sperm is analysed by following the sperm trajectory and the velocity. The results, comprising all kinematic parameters for CASA, are then presented within seconds.

Results

SCA® is a powerful tool, as CASA is the only objective method to analyse the total progressive and motile spermatozoa in a sample, hence giving the indication of the sperm fertilizing potential.
