MetroSperm Spectrophotometer

 

The MetroSperm® is a handheld, direct read spectrophotometer for measuring boar semen concentration and temperature.

Semen concentration and temperature are calculated directly from measurements taken in the raw ejaculate sample, quickly and accurately in a matter of seconds.

Consistent Accuracy - The MetroSperm® has shown consistent accuracy when samples were tested by an independent andrology lab for verification.

Accuracy of the samples tested were within 3.38% (3.62 billion of the target total cells per dose of 3.50 billion when measured at the lab.

Low Cost To Operate - The MetroSperm® requires no extra supplies or lab equipment, unlike other direct read or conventional spectrophotometers that require cuvettes or special slides for preparation of a sample.

Saves Time & Labor - Compared to conventional semen analysis, the labor and time spent preparing samples is eliminated.

Easy To Clean - The MetroSperm® probe is made of stainless steel so cleaning and sterilizing between samples is an easy and quick two step process.  First, rinse the probe in a sanitizing solution then second, rinse the probe with distilled or reverse osmosis water.

Greater Reliability - By sampling the raw semen directly, the MetroSperm® improves sampling reliability by eliminating any errors that can be caused by....

  • Dilution and sample preparation.
  • Technical errors due to faulty or improperly calibrated micropipettes.
  • Human error caused by operator inaccuracies in handling the micropippettes or other volumetric measuring instruments.
