Description

Turkey Sperm Quality Analyzer SQA-Vt

  • Automatic analysis in 60 seconds
  • Minimum operator experience
  • Automatic calculation of the degree of dilution for the preparation of doses (both by total concentration and by the concentration of motile spermatozoa per insemination dose)
  • Visualization (microscopy) of a semen sample on the device screen or on a computer display (with a freeze-frame effect) using a glass slide or capillary
  • Variable optical zoom from 300x to 500x
  • Full printout of analysis results
  • Semen sample-filled capillaries guarantee easy handling and can be used in any environment
  • Connect to a PC with T-Sperm
    – Import data and controls from the SQA-Vt analyzer to a computer
    – Combining different semen analysis measurements into one complete report with an attached image of the semen sample
    – View “real time” semen samples (received from the analyzer SQA-Vt) on a PC screen
    – Save test results with attached video clips or imagesDefined parameters:
  • concentration . Millions of spermatozoa are analyzed. A very sperm-specific wavelength of light is absorbed in the concentration chamber of the SQA-Vt test capillary. The optical density detector measures the light absorbed by the cells. This is converted by the microprocessor into cell concentration using the appropriate MES algorithm.
  • Mobility . Tens of thousands of spermatozoa are analyzed as they move in a beam of light in the SQA-Vt analyzer. The movement of motile spermatozoa causes light modulation. These modulations of light are converted into electronic signals as “peaks and dips”. These oscillations of the electronic signals are analyzed by the microprocessor and converted into mobility based on the appropriate MES algorithm.
