Semen Analysis

LIMI-Gene's State of the Art AI Laboratory features the finest in semen handling equipment. At the heart of the Lab is the HTM-CEROS sperm analyzer. This technology removes the human variable from testing to to give you an unbiaised evaluation.

CEROS Sperm Analysis

Whether you need basic counts and motilities or detailed analysis of sperm motion, LIMI-Gene's CEROS provides you with the results you need. Results for motile, progressively motile and static sperm include actual number counted, sample total, concentrations and percentages. Additional results include averages and distribution bar charts of velocities, motion characteristic and morphometry.

Real-Time Quality Control The CEROS provides on demand quality control with the Playback feature. Using image Playback, the accuracy of the analysis is confirmed. To optimize the system, analysis parameters may be adjusted using the two interactive QC Plots or directly from the analysis setup screen.
