Summary

This clinical study has been organised to investigate whether microfluidic technology may be considered as a new procedure for routine sperm preparation during assisted reproduction. This is a technique that is already used in other centres.

The Microfluidic Sperm Sorting (MSS) technology reduces the time of sample preparation while selects a sperm population with better motility and less DNA fragmentation as compared to routine procedures. This med-ical device is already CE marked.

Having the intention to implement this technology in our department, we conduct this study to investigate whether the use of MSS has at least the same impact, if not better, on fertilization and embryo quality as compared to standard sperm selection procedures.
