Media

A suitable environment for spermatozoa

Spermogram - Media Spermatozoa are the vehicles of male fertility. Since the oocyte contains the supplies that will sustain the first stages of embryo development, spermatozoa only carry one basic essential to the oocyte, which is pretty much limited to the paternal DNA contribution to the genome of the future embryo. Proportionally, they are somewhat flattened, like the palm of your hand. For a cell, a flattened shape means large surface area for low volume, which translates into a lot of frontiers to defend with scarce and limited biochemical resources. Thus spermatozoa are fragile and the composition of the fluid in which they bathe and upon which they depend to survive and mature is crucial to male fertility.

Using its unique expertise, Nasci is working to develop new media that are likely to improve male fertility diagnostics and that might promote male fertility.
