Measure total and progressive motile cell counts accurately
Achieving target pregnancy rates isn’t always straightforward, even when semen QC is carefully managed. Environmental conditions and handling factors can occasionally introduce variability. When this happens, troubleshooting can be slow, costly, and advisers may hesitate to make confident recommendations without clear data.
This is where Motile Cell Count (MCC) makes a difference. Knowing the exact number of motile cells in a sexed straw helps producers verify that each dose meets its intended performance, ensuring clarity, consistency, and confidence across the supply chain.
Why MCC matters?
Sex-sorted semen straws are rapidly growing in popularity worldwide, thanks to their ability to pre-determine offspring sex with approximately 90% accuracy. This gives farmers the power to control herd composition, enhance profitability, improve efficiency, and accelerate genetic progress.
In semen analysis, accuracy is critical—especially for sex-sorted samples, which typically have lower cell concentrations and higher debris levels compared to conventional or fresh semen. This creates a clear need for a fast, reliable, low-effort, and high-accuracy quality control method.
The best part: For Dynescan users, no extra steps are needed. MCC analysis is automatically applied to every sex-sorted sample during the standard measurement process, providing consistent and reliable results—regardless of operator experience.
