Artificial intelligence model for the assessment of unstained live sperm morphology [PDF]
Reproduction and FertilityTraditional sperm morphology assessment requires staining and high magnification (100×), rendering sperm unsuitable for further use. We aimed to determine whether an in-house artificial intelligence (AI) model could reliably assess normal sperm ...

Effect of age and scrotal circumference on sperm morphology in Brahman bulls using a modified fixation technique [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary ScienceSperm morphology (form and size of sperm) analysis is useful for evaluating bull fertility and diagnosing reproductive performance. An advanced age is associated with a higher frequency of morphological sperm anomalies; however, there is limited ...
