Who Needs Special Sperm Diagnostic Testing
  • Multiple failed intrauterine insemination (IUI) attempts
  • Multiple unsuccessful in vitro fertilisation (IVF) attempts
  • Unexplained infertility
  • Men over 40 with abnormal sperm parameters (e.g., severe morphological abnormalities <1% or oligozoospermia with forward motility <20%)
  • Recurrent infections of the male urogenital system
  • Habitual miscarriage
Our Testing Services
1. Sperm DNA Fragmentation Assay
  • The integrity of sperm DNA is crucial for successful fertilisation and healthy embryo development. 
  • Our test identifies sperm with intact DNA versus those with fragmentation. 
  • Research indicates that when the sperm DNA fragmentation index (SDF) exceeds 30%, the chance of successful pregnancy significantly decreases. Therefore, for couples with an SDF greater than 30%, we recommend considering IVF as a viable option to enhance the likelihood of conception. 
  • We also suggest the use of Physiological Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (PICSI), which helps select mature and morphologically normal sperm for fertilisation.

     

2. Sperm Hyaluronan Binding Assay
  • Hyaluronan is a key component surrounding the oocyte, playing a vital role in natural fertilisation. 
  • Only mature sperm can effectively bind to hyaluronan, and this binding serves as an indicator of sperm maturity and physiological function. 
  • Our hyaluronan binding assay is specifically designed for men suspected of infertility, providing accurate predictions of sperm's ability to fertilise an egg.
