ORIGIO® Gradients and ORIGIO® Sperm Wash
Media for sperm preparation with innovative formulation, drawing on the latest scientific knowledge of sperm function.
Mimicking natural conditions, supporting sperm motility and functions,1-8protecting spermatozoa from oxidative damage9-12 and osmotic stress during preparation.13-14
ORIGIO® Gradients – media for the efficient separation of motile spermatozoa from the ejaculate by the density gradient method. Ready-to-use ORIGIO® Gradient 40/80 kits, designed to minimize osmotic stress during preparation, as well as classical 90% and 100% ORIGIO® Gradient solutions for custom-made gradients after dilution with ORIGIO® Sperm Wash.
ORIGIO® Sperm Wash – media for washing of spermatozoa, the isolation of motile viable spermatozoa by swim-up method, dilution of ORIGIO® Gradients, and holding spermatozoa for IUI procedures. Designed to support sperm motility and physiologic functions.
Availability
This product is available for sale in Europe, the USA as well as selected countries in the rest of the world.
Key Features
ORIGIO Gradients and ORIGIO Sperm Wash have a unique combination of advantages:
- High pH of 8.0-8.5 to mimic in vivo physiological conditions and stimulate higher motility1,2,5
- High concentration of bicarbonate to support optimal sperm function1-4
- 3 antioxidants (EDTA, taurine, citrate) added to minimize formation of reactive oxygen species and protect spermatozoa from oxidative damage9-12
- Fully HEPES buffered to use outside a CO2 controlled environment. Requires no pre-equilibration.
- Shelf life after opening: 28 days
ORIGIO® Gradient 40/80 specifically:
- Tailored osmolality, differentiated through layers to minimize osmotic stress to spermatozoa13,14
ORIGIO® Sperm Wash specifically:
- High concentration of albumin to support sperm physiology and protect from oxidative stress6
- Can be used for IUI, IVF, and ICSI
