Scientists at Okayama University Publish Research in Biomedical Engineering
Published in Blood Weekly, March 15th, 2012
2012 MAR 15 -- Data detailed in "Screening of sperm velocity by fluid mechanical characteristics of a cyclo-olefin polymer microfluidic sperm-sorting device" have been presented. "The microfluidic sperm-sorting (MFSS) device is a promising advancement for assisted reproductive technology. Previously, poly(dimethylsiloxiane) and quartz MFSS devices were developed and used for intracytoplasmic sperm injection," scientists in Okayama, Japan report.
"However, these disposable devices were not clinically suitable for assisted reproduction, so a cyclo-olefin polymer MFSS (COP-MFSS) device was developed. By micromachining, two microfluidic channels with different...
