Overview

CellPro is a transportable photometer with an internal rechargeable battery, measures sample absorbance in a cuvette, and automatically converts the results into concentration values using preloaded calibration curves. These curves are species-specific, which is why each reference corresponds to a particular species.

CellPro is a compact and portable: 500g for a dimension of 120x145x65 mm. It is equipped with a 600 nm wavelength optical system, allowing the estimation of sperm concentration.

The instrument is powered by the internal rechargeable battery or by the mains supply through the provided power adapter. The battery has an autonomy of approximately 1 month with normal use and if it is fully charged.

Determination of the configuration equation

CellPro measures the absorbance of the samples and converts it into concentration information based on equations stored in the system.

The configured equation has been determined on the basis of a minimum of 50 ejaculates of the species for which this CellPro is intended. The ejaculates are taken from given animals in rearing and yield conditions typical of a semen production centre.

The equation of polynomial type has been defined according to absorbance values read in relation to semen samples with the CellPro and concentration measurements made with a reference method.

FAQ

1. What is CellPro?

CellPro is a portable photometer designed to measure sperm concentration. It analyzes the absorbance of a sample placed in a cuvette and automatically converts the results into concentration values using preloaded calibration curves.

2. Can CellPro be used for different species?

Yes. Each CellPro model is configured with species-specific calibration curves. That’s why each reference corresponds to a particular species, ensuring accurate and reliable results.

3. What is the battery life of CellPro?

CellPro includes a built-in rechargeable battery that provides approximately one month of autonomy under normal use when fully charged. It can also operate on mains power using the supplied adapter.

4. What are the main technical features of CellPro?

Compact and lightweight (500 g), CellPro measures 120 x 145 x 65 mm. It uses a 600 nm optical system to accurately estimate sperm concentration.

5. How is the CellPro calibration equation determined?

The calibration equation for each CellPro is established using at least 50 ejaculates representative of the target species. These samples are collected under typical semen production conditions, and absorbance values measured with CellPro are compared with concentration results obtained by a reference method to define a reliable polynomial equation.
