SY-B178 Professional Medical Laboratory Sperm Analyzer - WHO Standard Semen Testing Equipment

Basically what happens with manual semen analysis is you get huge variability between technicians and even same person on different days — it's a real headache for clinics trying to standardize results, and that's exactly where this system comes in.

It uses computer-assisted tracking to lock onto each sperm and measure velocity up to 180 μm/s, capturing up to 75 frames per analysis so you're not guessing at motility percentages, and the whole thing runs in 1-5 seconds per sample (standdard mode, anyway) which is pretty much a lifesaver when you've got a stack of patients waiting.

Particle resolution goes form 0 to 150 μm and it handles 10x through 100x objectives, but most buyers just stick with 20x for routine work unless they're doing detailed morphology — and the software automatically filters out debris so you're not counting dead cells or dust as sperm, which is a common issue with older systems.

We've got CE and ISO13485 on this model, and the warranty is one year, but we usually have stock for immediate shipment unless you need custom labeling or bulk synthesis — lead time on that is about 20 days or so depending on the volume.

One thing people don't always ask about is the image capture rate: it's actually 75 frames per analysis, not per second, so you get a solid motion history without overwhelming the system with data, and that keeps the analysis time down to that 1-5 second window even with high sperm counts up to 1000 per sample.

It's not really suited for veterinary work though — the tracking algorithms are tuned specifically for human sperm parameters, so if you're doing animal studies you'd need a different setup altogether, and teh 0-180 μm/s speed range might cut off some species with faster swimmers.
