Product Details
Sperm mitochondrial superoxide anion(O2-.) detection
Sperm Reactive Oxygen Species MitoSOX Red Staining kit
Phyiological& Pathological role of sperm mitochondria:
The mitochondria are the main site of ROS production in sperm. ROS
play an important role in sperm physiology acting as triggers of
fertilization processes such as hyperactivation, acrosome reaction
and spermatozoa–oocyte binding. However, in cases of mitochondrial
dysfunctions, there is an imbalance between ROS production and
antioxidant capacity, the oxidative stress. In this case, ROS cause
damage to sperm structures including lipid peroxidation of the
plasma membrane and DNA damage leading to loss of biological
function of spermatozoa.
Features:
- Specific targeting probe for mitochondria, with an accurate result.
- Exclude the interference of dead sperm, and report the
mitochrondrial ROS level in live sperm, which is more clinically meaningful.
- A large number of sperm can be easily analyzed, leading to good
repeatable results.
- Required device: flow cytometer (blueexcitation).
Apllications:
Analyze the etiology of infertility.
Analyze the reasons of ART adverse outcomes(low fertilization and
blastocyst formation rate, miscarriage).
Analyze the reasons of low quality semen parameters.
Test results:
Q1: dead sperm, mitochondria O2-. (-); Q2: dead sperm, mitochondria O2-. (+)
Q3: live sperm, mitochondria O2-. (-); Q4: live sperm, mitochondria O2-. (+)
