PROTEX OVERVIEW
For decades, males have collected their semen sample in a multi-purpose specimen cup that was never designed to protect the quality of his sperm. In fact, modern research is now proving specimen cups negatively impact sperm motility and biological membranes critical for fertilization. Now, there’s a better way — with ProteX.
ProteX semen sample collection is the world’s first scientifically designed container that protects sperm during and after collection. Sperm collected in ProteX gain up to a 50% improvement in motility compared to a generic specimen cup within the typical processing period.
Whether collecting for IUI, IVF, or ICSI use, there is no need to rush the collection or the lab processing. ProteX is so effective, it keeps samples viable for a minimum of 24 hours (when used with 1 mL of media). This gives couples the option to collect conveniently at home where they are most comfortable and avoid the extra stress of on-site clinic collection rooms.
Experience the ProteX factor and try it yourself.
PRODUCT DETAILS
ProteX protects sperm quality during and after collection, so couples have the best chance of assisted fertility success.
The ProteX collection container features an insulated outer liner and an engineered inner funnel designed to mitigate environmental stresses. The outer liner is a unique blended material that protects the sample from damaging temperature fluctuations. The inner funnel is made from a co-polymer with an anti-static property, so the sample easily slides down into the well. The inner well is volume-efficient to reduce surface area exposure. When you add 1 mL of media to the well prior to collection, the semen sample will remain pH-balanced and osmoregulated for up to 48 hours.
