Morpho-check colouring agent, 30 ml
- 4506685
Dye for colouring sperm – this morpho-check dye allows study of spermatozoa morphology under a light microscope. In addition, this gives a picture of the number of living and dead spermatozoa (sperm with an intact membrane release no eosin, and thus remain unstained, dead sperm turn red).
Comes in 30 ml drip vials.
Method:
- Mix a sample of semen with 1 drop of the semen-stain mixture on a microscope slide and make a thin smear using a cover glass
- Cover the smear with a cover glass and read immediately under the microscope
Interpretation:
- Colourless spermatozoa: live spermatozoa
- Red stained spermatozoa: dead spermatozoa
Count 100-200 cells and differentiate the living from the dead spermatozoa.
Read results immediately, waiting too long will yield lower vitality percentages.
