Combined effect of counting chamber and diluent on sperm kinematics

The evaluation of sperm motion is crucial for processing of seminal doses for artificial insemination.

The evaluation of sperm The evaluation of sperm motion is crucial for processing of seminal doses for artificial insemination. Here, the combined effect of the type and capture area of three counting chambers, together with the type of diluent employed, on sperm motility was analysed. Ejaculates from thirteen Holstein bulls were used for sperm kinematic analysis with the ISAS®v1 CASA‐Mot system, using two capillary‐loaded counting chambers (Leja® and Cell‐Vu®) and one drop displacement chamber (Makler®).
