Semen Analysis Counting Chambers
CellVision have expertise in designing and manufacturing a range of glass disposable sperm analysis slides for use in the pathology laboratory and IVF clinics. These glass disposable slides can used for manual semen analysis count offering accuracy in sperm motility and concentration analysis.
CellVision Glass Disposable Counting Chambers are also designed to work with Computer Aided Sperm Analysis (CASA) including Sperm Class Analyser CASA system (SCA) and Hamilton Thorne CASA
The range includes a Glass disposable Neubauer Improved Hemocytometer giving the advantage of speed and cleanliness over reusable Hemocytometers
New UK recommendations for Post Vasectomy Semen Analysis (PVSA) points to the use of Post Vasectomy disposable glass slides as a means of making economical savings while achieving similar results to the older standard. CellVision have a design that offers excellent manual assessment for post vasectomy and azoospermia

CellVision Post Vasectomy 100µm Fixed Depth Disposable Glass slide
The CellVision, Analysis Slide, 100 µm (2 chamber Slide) is specially designed for manual assessment of sperm parameters in the case of Post Vasectomy semen analysis. CellVision Fixed Depth 100μm Disposable glass slides are specifically designed to quantify low numbers of cells in suspension and allows any motile sperm to swim freely.
“Large volume slides gave results that were at least as effective as the previously considered ‘gold standard’ and the two could be considered ‘interchangeable’. It could be concluded that this method is an acceptable alternative to that described in the BAS 2002 guidelines and that cost considerations are an additional benefit”. – P HANCOCK, K LINDSAY, MT TOMLINSON Br J Biomed Sci 2014; 1(1); 1-5
The publication by Hancock et al. investigated a change to the best practice for Post Vasectomy Semen Analysis (PVSA) to determine an acceptable and cost-effective alternative. The study concluded that large volume glass disposable slides gave results that were at least as effective as the previously considered ‘gold standard’ and the two could be considered ‘interchangeable’. It could be concluded that this method is an acceptable alternative to that described in the BAS 2002 guidelines. Time and motion studies also demonstrate an economical benefit in using the large volume glass disposable slides.

CellVision Hemocytometer 100µm disposable glass slide with inbuilt Neubauer Improved grid
CellVision Disposable Glass Haemocytometers are easy to use, remove any risk of infection and save time during semen analysis. There are no changes to existing laboratory protocols. CellVision slides are CE marked and ISO approved and meets with UKAS approval.
CellVision Haemocytometers represent value for money in terms of usage – the time saved in preparing reusable haemocytometers, affixing cover slips and then washing/drying represents savings of your lab team’s time facilitating them in other activities.

CellVision Disposable 20µm slide Counting Chamber is the best choice and value for accurate and reproducible semen count using manual techniques or using CASA analysis systems for sperm count and motility.
A special glass coating prevents air bubble formation and eliminates the interaction between semen and glass resulting in the chambers demonstrating a smooth sample fill. An even distribution of semen throughout the chamber is achieved technical design. Because the slides are non-toxic, they create an environment that is most useful for motility assessment.
Available in two formats:
2 chambers (item #: CV1020-2cv)
4 chambers (item #: CV1020-4cv)Get free samples of any of the CellVision Glass Disposable Slides by contacting enquiries@mitrone.ie
