How Fertic Better?
Fertic are flow-free sterile single-use chips for the sorting and separation of healthy normal sperm from the many compromised sperm present in a semen sample. Fertic is designedto sort sperm for subsequent use in ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection). IVF (in-vitro fertilization) and IUI (intrauterine insemination).

Fertic are flow-free sterile single-use chips for the sorting and separation of healthy normal sperm from the many compromised sperm present in a semen sample. Fertic is designedto sort sperm for subsequent use in ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection). IVF (in-vitro fertilization) and IUI (intrauterine insemination).
Fertic eliminate the use of sperm-damaging procedures such as centrifugation and mixing.

How Fertic Better?
Fertic chip is a flow-free single-use device with sixe lanes each consisting of an inlet port connected to a larger outlet collection port by a microfluidic channel 15mm L x 4mm W . Total maximum 200 μL.
In operation, each channel is filled with micropipette for sorting solution through the inlet port followed by 2-3 μL of untreated semen.

In operation, each channel is filled with micropipette for sorting solution through the inlet port followed by 2-3 μL of untreated semen. The chip is then
incubated for 5-30 minutes.
The limited depth of the channel constrains the migration of compromised sperm while allowing the most motile healthy sperm to migrate to the outlet
where they are available for harvest.

Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) are very important tools to deal with infertility problems which affect almost 50 million couples around the world. It is estimated that about half of couples’ infertility cases are attributed to male infertility, hence poor sperm
quality or insufficient concentration of
spermatozoa. This is why sperm selection is crucial for its use in ARTs such as in vitro fertilization (IVF), intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and intrauterine insemination (IUI).
