What is Microfluidic Sperm Sorting and how does it work?

Microfluidic sperm sorting refers to the process of enhancing sperm selection in fertility treatments by manipulating tiny fluid volumes to perform precise biological and chemical processes. The fertility specialist performs this procedure using a microfluidic device, a small, chip-like platform that separates and selects sperm cells based on sorting factors, such as motility and morphology. This sorting process of sperm cells allows healthcare providers or fertility specialists to choose the healthiest quality and most viable sperm cells they can utilise in assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilisation. Compared to traditional sperm sorting methods, such as the centrifugation technique, this process is less damaging to the sperm cells. Therefore, this technique enhances the overall efficiency and success rates of fertility treatments.
Who Is Eligible For Microfluidic Sperm Sorting?
Our specialists often recommend the microfluidic sperm sorting treatment to couples or individuals facing fertility issues mainly related to sperm quality, such as low sperm motility or poor morphology. If you are someone with a history of unsuccessful fertility treatments like IVF or IUI, you are also the right candidate for the treatment. Other cases where fertility specialists recommend this treatment are where sperm DNA integrity is crucial, such as for older couples or those with genetic considerations. To sum it up, anyone looking to select the best quality sperm for assisted reproductive treatments and procedures can benefit from this technology.

What Is The Cost Of Microfluidic Sperm Sorting?
The average cost of microfluidic sperm sorting in India varies widely. It can range from approximately ₹10,000 to ₹50,000 depending on several factors, including the location and reputation of the fertility clinic, specific technology used, and whether the sorting is part of a larger treatment package such as IVF or IUI or being done as a stand-alone treatment. Additional factors can influence the treatment’s cost structure, such as the complexity of the individual's fertility issues and the number of sorting cycles required.
What are the benefits of Microfluidic Sperm Sorting?
The treatment offers the following benefits:
Improved Sperm Quality
The treatment ascertains picking a sperm of the healthiest quality from the rest of the sperm cells and used in ART fertility treatments.
Less Sperm Damage
Unlike other traditional sperm sorting techniques, such as centrifugation, microfluidic sperm sorting causes lesser sperm damage.
Higher Success Rates
Studies reveal that this sperm sorting technique positively impacts the success rate of fertilisation as only good quality sperm is used to fertilise the eggs.
Efficiency
It is a very efficient and precise treatment for extracting high-quality and healthy sperm.
Low Sample Contamination
There is no to minimal risk of semen sample contamination using this technique.
