You're curious to test the sperm, but ashamed to come to the doctor or lab? In the future, his own sperm test at home is not an impossible thing. The experts in the Netherlands offers a solution by creating a male fertility testing kits that can practically be done at home.
Admittedly, these tools are useful. However, the question arises about the ethical use of the tool if without getting input from the professionals. The reason that the manual counting method is reliable as always accompanied by an expert or a doctor's consultation. It is feared that, without consultation, the tool can actually hurt.
Generally, men slightly embarrassed to check the sperm quality in addition to the procedure, the analysis also takes a long time in the lab. Ejaculate sperm analysis results should begin at the same hour. That is, unless the patient's fertility clinic next door to, he could not prepare the sperm sample from home and must live "produce" in the lab, too. After the samples submitted to the lab, took a long time to perform manual counting method.
"With our system, we can solve the problem," said Segerink.
According to him, his findings chip just need 12 seconds to get the results and the degree of possible error with the manual counting method. Tool that could be used in fertility center hospital, but also can be adapted so that there are variations of a cheap and practical that can be used at home.
On the other hand, Michael Dunn, medical ethics researcher at Oxford University, expressed concern. "There is a risk to the patient if they are not given the relevant information about the impact of positive results sterility," he said.
That is, if it turns out the patient's outcome was barren, she should be given appropriate information so that not one of perception.
Equipment such medical examiners were now needed. Another example is Hywel Morgan and his partners from the University of Southhampton who developed a more practical tool to test viral infection and anemia only from a speck of blood.
"This tool allows the distribution of health services to the public," Morgan said, "However, if you're diagnosing the disease, the results (test of the instrument) must be handled properly
