Frequently asked questions about semen analysis services
What semen analysis services does Agrofluidics provide?
Agrofluidics offers a comprehensive portfolio of semen analysis services, including standard assessments such as concentration, motility, morphology, viability, and microbiological quality control, as well as advanced testing including sperm DNA integrity, oxidative stress evaluation, thermal resistance testing, functional sperm analysis, and penetration assays. The company also provides research and development support and ongoing external quality control programs.
What is CASA analysis and what parameters does it measure?
CASA (Computer-Assisted Sperm Analysis) is a computerized system that evaluates semen samples using microscopy, image capture, and specialized analytical software. Its purpose is to measure semen characteristics objectively and reproducibly, reducing the subjectivity associated with manual evaluation.
CASA can assess parameters such as sperm concentration, morphometry, total and progressive motility, and multiple motion characteristics including velocity, trajectory linearity, and sperm head displacement amplitude.
In animal reproduction, CASA is a valuable tool for standardizing semen evaluation. At Agrofluidics, CASA is complemented with functional tests such as membrane integrity, DNA fragmentation, and sperm response to fluid flow in microfluidic systems to provide a more complete assessment of reproductive potential.
What is external semen quality control and who can benefit from it?
The Continuous Quality Control Service is designed for integrators, semen production centers, and genetics companies seeking an independent, objective, and ongoing evaluation of semen quality.
The service can be customized according to testing frequency, sample volume, and analytical methods. It integrates technologies such as CASA, functional sperm analysis, and microfluidic systems to detect quality deviations before they affect reproductive performance.
In addition, Agrofluidics can provide a data-driven fertility prediction service in which semen results are analyzed cumulatively and compared with historical databases. This approach helps identify patterns associated with reduced reproductive performance, compare batches, males, or production centers, and generate risk indicators that support decision-making before insemination.
How can sperm DNA integrity affect artificial insemination results?
Sperm DNA integrity reflects the condition of the genetic material delivered by sperm to the embryo. When DNA damage is elevated, the sperm’s ability to support normal embryonic development may be compromised, potentially resulting in reduced conception rates, impaired embryo development, or an increased risk of early embryonic loss.
Even when a semen sample exhibits good motility and morphology, some sperm cells may still contain fragmented DNA. For this reason, DNA integrity testing serves as an important complement to conventional semen analysis. It can reveal abnormalities that are not always detected by traditional methods and provides valuable information about the functional quality of a semen dose before artificial insemination.
