130 Citations | Because the TB test is an easy and inexpensive method, its potential use as a routine test for sperm DNA integrity, complementary to standard semen parameters, should be investigated further. |
7 Citations | Significant cost saving will occur in shifting the paradigm for sperm testing from laboratory microscope to a handheld immunodiagnostic device for home use. |
44 Citations | The sperm migration test proved to be the best discriminator of sperm fertilization potential and should be considered as a first level screening test in the assessment of male fertility. |
37 Citations | This method of using sperm concentration, instead of vanguard distance, as diagnostic criteria of in-vitro SMPT has potential as a useful laboratory-based sperm function test. |
13 Citations | The SpermMar test proved easier to use and to assess than the Immunobead test and it is recommended for consideration as a screening procedure for sperm antibodies despite the fact that at this stage only IgG antibodies can be detected. |
46 Citations | Sperm MTT viability assay can be used as a diagnostic test for discrimination of viable sperms from sperm population. |
It is concluded that the proposed method is cost effective and is possible to serve as a protocol for rapid sperm quantitative assessment. | |
In response, promising simplified sperm testing devices, able to provide cost-effective point-of-care male infertility diagnosis are prospected as a plausible solution to resolve variability and increase access to sperm testing. |
