Dynescan Semen Analyser – Groundbreaking fertility marker: Sustained Motility Lifetime (SML)

First Semen Lifetime Analyser

proven to improve fertility outcomes

The Dynescan semen analyser is portable and easy-to-use providing you with reliable measurements of semen quality on fresh or processed semen. It is the first technology capable of measuring semen quality parameters (% progressive motility and swimming speed) over time enabling you to improve fertility outcomes.

New insights,
over time...

Access to Sustained Motility Lifetime (SML) data provides you with valuable insights into whether sperm motility is likely to be sustained in the reproductive tract.

% Prog. Motility

Progressive motion is defined as that when cells are moving in a fairly straight line so that they progress across the sample.

Swimming Speed

Mean swimming speed is defined as the average (mean) swimming speed measured for all cells that are considered progressively motile.

Concentration

Concentration is the number of sperm cells per millilitre of sample.

Motile cell count

Motile cell count is the number of sperm cells that are swimming per millilitre of sample. (Coming soon)

Semen QC, where it matters

Artificial insemination (AI) for livestock production brings genetic advances straight to your farm. Just as all individuals in your herd differ, the fertility potential of every batch of semen differs and can deteriorate if mismanaged. Gain confidence with Dynescan data collected on straws at the farm, enabling you to match male fertility potential with herd management data to optimise AI protocols for better production efficiencies.

Brochure

Thanks to Dynescan measurements of progressive motility over time, we are identifying key differences between semen samples, which seems to agree with early on-farm observations around conception rates.

Dynescan measurements ensure that vets can provide speedy and reliable advice to farmers. This proactive service can help to improve profitability through enhanced fertility performance.

Preg Rate drives the efficiency of our AYR calving herd. A poor batch of semen can destroy planned calvings having a Dynescan to test semen on farm seems a logical step forward.
