  1. 1. Predicting the outcome of IVF treatments using forward selection regression and linear discriminant analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Agnes Ekman; Linnéa Fahlberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : As more and more In Vitro Fertilizaiton (IVF) treatments are performed each year, there is a need to better predict the outcomes of different stages of the treatment and hence get a better understanding of which hormonal and physical parameters affect the treatment outcome and in what way. In this study, the effect of interaction between baseline AMH (anti-mullerian hormone) and DFI (DNA fragmentation index) on the chance of obtaining at least one good quality embryo was investigated, but no significance was found.

  3. 2. Effekt av tid mellan avlivning och spermieextraktion : om spermiekvalitet hos tjurens bitestikelspermier

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Alexandra Walfridsson; [2021]
    Keywords : tjur; bitestikel; motilitet; spermier; post mortem;

    Abstract : Uppsamling av spermier från bitestikeln post mortem är en bra teknik för att bevara viktigt genetiskt material från individer som är värdefulla ur avelssynpunkt och/ eller vilda djur. Djur dör dock inte nödvändigtvis i nära anslutning till ett laboratorium med rätt utrustning och resurser för att ta till vara materialet. READ MORE

  4. 3. Halomax® as a method for chromatin staining in cat sperm

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Agnes Sjödahl; [2015]
    Keywords : Halomax®; chromatin staining; spermatozoa; cat;

    Abstract : Wild felids all over the world are threatened by extinction. As a part of the preservation task concerning those species, in zoos as well as in situ in their wild habitat, the use of assisted reproduction technology (ART) is explored, e. g. artificial insemination (AI) and in vitro fertilization (IVF).

During the last decade there has been a growing focus on sperm DNA damage as a cause of male infertility. READ MORE

  6. 5. Correlation between Fertilization, Cleavage and Pregnancy Rate with Sperm DNA-Fragmentation Index (DFI)

    University essay from Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Kaitlin Nymo; [2008]
    Keywords : Human sperm; male infertility; Sperm Chromatin Dispersion Test; DNA-damage; in vitro fertilization.;

    Abstract : The chromatin integrity in sperm cells is vital for successful pregnancy. In this study DNA-damage was evaluated in sperm cells from 50 men attending In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) or Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) treatment. READ MORE
