Zymot
Zymot has three major features: a sample inlet port, a sample outlet port and a membrane filter. 850μL of raw semen is injected into the inlet port. The sample travels into the lower portion of the device, underneath a membrane filter that has 8 micron pores.
Fertilization media is placed on top of the membrane. During incubation, the most gradually motile sperm migrate through the pores into the fresh media above. They leave behind the less motile, morphologically abnormal sperm. What is collected from above the membrane are the healthiest, most genomically competent sperm.
How is ZyMōt different?
It is a better way to prepare sperm, ZyMōt devices help minimize mismatching risk, reducing the potential for costly error. Processing sperm with ZyMōt devices gives providers more confidence and gives patients more peace of mind.
Quality, accuracy and efficiency are central to the success of a fertility practice. Traditional, centrifugation- based sperm preparation methods are not only time-consuming and laborious, but can cause additional sperm DNA fragmentation 1 and cellular stress, 2 lowering the odds of success.3,4 ZyMōt Sperm Separation Devices are a better way to prepare sperm for use in IUI and ICSI procedures. It’s that simple.
