Abstract: KEY WORDS: computer-assisted semen analysis; cryopreserv'ation; donor sperm bank; semen. ~TRODUCTIONInfertility is the inability to conceive after 1 year of unprotected intercourse. Male factors alone are responsible for infertility in 30% of infertile couples. The first documented human artificial insemination with donor (AID) spermatozoa was accomplished in 1884

“…The application of ICSI in assisted reproduction has opened new avenues for the treatment of previously untreatable cases of female and male infertility. Poor sperm concentration and sperm motility in fresh semen ejaculates are the most common reasons for the rejection of potential semen donors (Sidhu et al, 1997). However, the evaluation of sperm motility is the most important microscopic criterion to predict the fertility outcome with ICSI for in-vitro processed semen.…”

“…It is well established that the ability of cryopreserved sperm to fertilize an oocyte and achieve a pregnancy is greater if the postthaw motility percentage is high (3). The postthaw motility is related to the precryopreservation motility (4).…”
