Excerpt

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) revolutionized the treatment of male factor infertility [1]. ICSI eliminates all natural selection barriers, since the spermatozoon is directly injected into the oocyte cytoplasm [2]. While visual inspection permits a trained embryologist to identify immature spermatozoa, the damage in sperm DNA itself does not result in any morphological changes, making its identification nearly impossible [3]. Therefore, semen processing prior to ICSI procedures is of utmost importance. …
