The Fertile Chip is an innovative device that offers numerous benefits for better sperm selection. In particular, this complementary technique does not require sperm training, thus decreasing the possibility of contamination.
In addition, the Fertile chip is fast and simple since only 30 minutes of incubation are required for the sperm to travel to the collection chamber.
Finally, this device selects the spermatozoa with the lowest percentage of fragmentation in the double stranded DNA and concentration of reactive oxygen species (ROS), so that oxidative stress is reduced.
