Semen Collection and Analysis Lab
Our on-site lab utilizes advanced computer-aided sperm analyzers (CASA) to be able to deliver the quickest, most accurate semen evaluations, measuring morphology, motility, volume, and concentration. Aurora uses the CEROS II system, along with an AXIO Lab.A1 microscope (the same system commonly used in university biological research protocols) to provide extremely detailed and reliable sperm analysis and to make dose calculations.
