???Pumped-up propulsion??? during front crawl swimming
Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 2002It is currently held that propulsion in human front crawl swimming is achieved by lift and drag forces predominantly generated by the hands. Calculation of these propulsive forces relies on the quasi-steady assumption that the fluid dynamic behavior of a hand model in a flow channel (constant velocity and orientation) is similar to that of a hand of a ...

Simultaneous swim-up/swim-down of sperm in assisted reproduction procedures
Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics, 1993High-quality motile human spermatozoa were obtained following treatment of semen by simultaneous swim-up into medium and swim-down into an isotonic 40% Percoll solution.This procedure was significantly better than the swim-up method and comparable to discontinuous Percoll gradient centrifugation. Recovery rates of motile sperm were 35% for swim-up, 65%

Factors affecting sperm yield during swim-up
Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics, 1993The migration of sperm (expressed as the percentage of the total motile cells in the ejaculate aliquot) from seminal plasma into overlying medium (swim-up) was increased with time, temperature, and increasing the surface area of contact between the two phases by increasing the angle of tube inclination.The proportion of sperm migrating into the medium ...

Swim-up procedure selects spermatozoa with longer telomere length
Mutation Research - Fundamental and Molecular Mechanisms of Mutagenesis, 2010Telomere length and sperm DNA fragmentation were determined in sperm samples from 27 patients, using a quantitative PCR (Q-PCR) assay and the Sperm Chromatin Dispersion (SCD) test, respectively. Comparisons of the samples before and after swim-up processing demonstrated that this procedure selects a sperm population with longer average telomere size ...

Swimming flume case report of stand-up paddle boarding
Medicina dello Sport, 2023Tests performed in a swimming flume in laboratory, under carefully controlled conditions, can be indicative of actual stand-up paddle (SUP) performance on the water. Aim of the case report was to test the feasibility of testing the SUP performance in the swimming flume, as absolute values and as percentage of peak values assessed through a maximal ...

A comparison of swim-down and swim-up methods for the extraction of high motility sperm
Fertility and Sterility, 1991High quality motile sperm are essential for the success of the in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer program and related procedures, for the performance of sperm antibody assays, and other in vitro tests of sperm function. Two methods for the extraction of high motility sperm, swim-down and swim-up, were compared on 30 ejaculates, and sperm motility ...
