SCA® Morphology is a module that permits the automatic morphometry analysis and morphology classification of human stained sperm samples observed in brightfield microscopy.
This analysis module is also available for Veterinary and Toxicology. |
There are enormous variation in the sperm morphology, which make its assessment quite complex, but several studies have recovered spermatozoa from female reproductive tract, specially in postcoital endoncervical mucus, and from the surface of zona pellucida and have helped to define the appearance of potentially fertilizing, that is, morphologically normal, spermazoa in some species. (Medkveld et al,. 1991: Liu & Baker, 1992a)
