CASASPERM CLASS ANALYZER

MICROPTIC, 20 YEARS SPECIALIZEDIN THE SEMEN ANALYSIS

Innovator in the development of the world’s
most advanced CASA (Computer aidedsemen analysis) system. With a dynamicand highly qualified staff, we develop ourproducts in collaboration with research
centres of great impact in the sector.

SCA®, THE MOST ADVANCEDMODULAR CASASCA® is a modular automatic system for theconcentration, motility, morphology, DNA
fragmentation and vitality analysis of the semen
samples, following WHO criteria or other defined bythe user.

Several scientific papers have dealt with the unreliable diagnostic in conventional analysis1, in contrast to thehomogeneous data obtained with CASA2.

IMPROVE
THE QUALITY OF THE SEMEN ANALYSIS®

SCA will help to implement the objective analysis, diagnostic reports and quality controls in your laboratory
because it contains all the information needed for the norm ISO 15189:2013 compliance.

STANDARDIZATION
AND TRACEABILITY®

The SCA improves the laboratory competitiveness, allowing the analysis standardization and results
recording. It minimizes the risk of error, due to human factor, in the sperm analysis.

WIDELY VALIDATED

Several studies have shown that the SCA® provides reliable, linear and accurate results with less variability
than manual methods, giving higher predictive value in diagnosing of the fertility problems3.
