Abstract

Background: Mico-volume semen freezing is essential and used popularly for fertility preservation of patients suffering cancer or undergoing male reproductive system related surgeries, and for other reasons that may risk fertility potential in ART cycles. However, clinicians and embryologists still face some unresolved technical and theoretical issues about the frozen-thawed efficiency.

Objective: To choose the appropriate freezing method for different volumes of normal semen samples.

Materials and methods: We investigated the frozen-thawed outcomes of semen with different volumes (20 uL, 50 uL, 100 uL, 200 uL, 500 uL and 1 mL) using two freezing methods (FLNV, static liquid nitrogen vapour cooling followed by liquid nitrogen preservation; RFLN, direct rapid freezing in liquid nitrogen) and analyzed the vitality, progressive motility and DNA fragmentation index of thawed sperm.

Results: We found that semen freezing with volumes more than 100 uL had better outcomes than volumes less than or equal to 50 uL after thawing. FLNV presented a higher efficiency for cryopreservation of semen with volumes less than 50 uL.

Conclusion: For smaller (micro) volumes, the FLNV technique is better than the RFLN method. https://doi.org/10.54680/fr24110110412.

微量精液不同冷冻方法的比较

背景：微量精液冷冻对于癌症患者或接受男性生殖系统相关手术的患者的生育力保存以及其他可能危及 ART 周期生育力的原因至关重要，并得到广泛应用。然而，临床医生和胚胎学家在冷冻解冻效率方面仍面临一些尚未解决的技术和理论问题：材料与方法：我们采用两种冷冻方法（FLNV，静态液氮蒸气冷却后液氮保存；RFLN，直接在液氮中快速冷冻）研究了不同体积（20 uL、50 uL、100 uL、200 uL、500 uL和1 mL）精液的冻融结果，并分析了解冻精子的活力、渐进运动能力和DNA碎片指数：结果：我们发现，解冻后精液量大于 100 uL 的冷冻效果优于精液量小于或等于 50 uL 的冷冻效果。结论：对于体积小于 50 uL 的精液，FLNV 的冷冻保存效率更高：https://doi.org/10.54680/fr24110110412。
