Description
oxiSperm II consists on a established assay providing the professionals with a reliable technology for the assessment of pro-oxidant activity in neat semen, seminal plasma, and spermatozoa. The test is based on the Nitro Blue Tetrazolium assay (NBT) in the form of a specifically formulated pre-embedded reactive membrane.
This assay is established on the reaction of pro-oxidant substances with the water-soluable tetrazolium salt to form insoluble crystals of formazan (Baehner et al, 1976). This molecule produces an increasing colour intensity in the membrane that ranges from a pale pink to a dark purple that can easily and comparatively classified by visual inspection.
