A normal-looking sperm has an oval head and a tail 10 to 15 times longer than the head. During a semen analysis, in which we look at sperm under the microscope, we can identify defective sperm by their large heads or strange tails -- kinked, doubled, or coiled.The World Health Organization recognizes that good quality semen should contain 60 percent normal sperm morphology. However, a much closer morphological evaluation called a strict morphology, or Kruger morphology, is more time-consuming and usually predicts normal sperm function when more than 15 percent are normal.Sample Report available here [PDF]The Home Semen Analysis Kit includes the following:One BioTranz™ Semen Shipper.Detailed instructions (This file may be downloaded as an Adobe Acrobat file)Two-way shipment of the BioTranz™ Semen Shipper to your destination and back to us.A Routine Semen Analysis (with optional Critical Morphology assessment).A detailed report regarding the sperm parameters measured, with recommendations will be made available to you or your physician regarding the overall results within a few days.The BioTranz™ Includes: Corrugated shipping box Polystyrene (styrofoam) container Cold pak (blue) Thin piece of styrofoam with 2 holes Test-Yolk Buffer (TYB, 5 mL) Test-tubes (2) Fabricated styrofoam core (block) Hygene™ Seminal Collection Kit To/From shipping labelInstructions for Easy UseWe recommend that international orders be shipped via FedEx International Priority.
