The gold standard of semen analysis is still an manual method, which is time-consuming, labour intensive and needs thorough quality control. Microfluidics can also offer advantages for this application. Therefore a first step in the development of a microfluidic chip has been made, which enables the man the semen analysis at home. In this article recent efforts to determine the concentration and motility using a microfluidic chip are summarized.
精液分析的金标准仍然是手工方法,这种方法耗时、 labor intensive且需要全面的质量控制。微流控技术也可为该应用带来优势。因此,已经迈出了开发微流控芯片的第一步,该芯片可让男性在家中进行精液分析。本文总结了近期使用微流控芯片测定浓度和活力的相关工作。 (注:原文中“labour intensive”表述有误,正确的是“labor-intensive”,意为“劳动密集型的” )
