The semen is placed on the top layer of a test tube filled with liquids of varying densities. During centrifugation, the healthy sperm cells move to the bottom layer of the tube while the remaining particles stay on top. Swim up technique: This technique relies on the motility and strength of healthy sperm cells. The semen is placed in a test tube with a layer of culture medium, where only the healthy cells move towards the culture where they are collected in order to be used for IUI.

After sperm washing, the isolated motile sperm are placed directly into the uterus, bypassing the vagina and cervix, bringing the sperm into close proximity to the fallopian tubes, where eggs are fertilized.
The separation of motile sperm allows the embryologist to add the motile sperm into a petri dish, containing eggs for IVF.
To fertilize eggs for patients using IVF with ICSI, each sperm is individually selected using a micro tool on a powerful microscope, and then directly injected into an egg. Removing unnecessary debris from a semen sample allows the embryologist to pick sperm easily, without clogging the micro tool.
After a semen sample is collected, the andrologist allows it to liquefy for approximately 20 minutes on a warmer.
