Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) Solution with HSA - 7%

Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) with HSA - 7% is a viscous solution that allows for easier sperm micromanipulation by slowing or immobilizing sperm for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). PVP 7% has relatively less viscosity than PVP 10% and is recommended for use with low quality or low motility sperm. PVP solution also yields greater control over fluid flow and prevents sticking in the ICSI pipette.

• Contains human serum albumin (5 mg/mL) and reconstituted in isotonic HEPES-buffered HTF medium.
• CE Marked

Quality Control Testing:

• Endotoxin by Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL)
• Sterility by the current USP, CFR and Ph. Eur. Sterility Test
• Sperm Motility Recovery Assay

Sperm motility after exposure to PVP was comparable to control medium without PVP after one hour.
