Number of healthy sperm counted in a sperm sample. Indicates how healthy the sperm sample is and so whether it is worth freezing the sample for sperm banking.
The number of sperm per milliliter of semen. A normal count is usually twenty million or more per milliliter. This is also known as "sperm density."
A semen analysis, measuring the volume of the ejaculate, the density of spermatozoa ('sperm cells', or just 'sperm') in it (expressed as so many million sperm per milliliter), the proportion of sperm swimming normally (the motility), and the proportion with a normal shape. A normal sperm count consists of a volume of more than 1 ml; a density of more than 20 million per ml; a motility of more than 50 percent; and normal forms of more than 50 percent (casual examination) or more than 14 percent (critical examination by the strict criteria recently advocated by the World Health Organisation).
the number of sperm in an ejaculate; "the sperm count is used as an indicator of male fertility"
the act of estimating the number of spermatozoa in an ejaculate
One of the parameter's that is checked in a semen sample i.e. the number of sperm present in the ejaculate.
The number of sperm is counted under the microscope; a normal count should be more than 20 million/ml.
Sperm count is the number of sperm present in a sample of semen. A normal sperm count is at least 20 million sperm in each milliliter of semen.
The number of sperm in the ejaculate (when given as the number of sperm per milliliter it is more accurately known as the sperm concentration or sperm density).
An assessment of the number of sperm present in each milliliter of semen
The number of sperm present. close window
A basic fertility-assessment test of sperm function, primarily involving counting the number of sperm, assessing their motility and progression, and evaluating their overall structure and form.
The number of sperm in an ejaculate. Also called sperm concentration and given as the number of sperm per milliliter.
a method of analysing the volume of semen, number, shape and motility of sperm. A normal sperm count contains on average 60 million sperm per millilitre of semen, of which 50 per cent are healthy, motile sperm.
Testing a man's sperm quality for his sperm count involves testing not only the total number of sperm in ejaculated semen, but also ascertaining what portion of the sperm can move forward and what portion are well formed.
A test that counts the number of sperm in the sample. A sperm count of less than 20 million per milliliter may indicate male infertility.
The sperm count http://www.fertilityformen.com/info_spermcounting.php is a measure of fertility in a man. It is the number of sperm in a unit volume of semen. A normal sperm count is between 20 million and 150 million sperm per millilitre http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003627.htm.
