Density Gradient Sperm Preparation is a laboratory technique used before Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) to separate and concentrate healthy, motile sperm from the semen sample.
The process helps remove unwanted cells, debris and non-motile sperm, allowing selected sperm to be prepared for the IUI procedure.
π¬ How is Density Gradient Preparation Done?
The semen sample is processed through specially prepared layers of media with different densities.
