why IMV LEJA Sperm Chamber Slide can be the best CASA Sperm Chamber Slide in Industry

What is the Leja IMV LEJA Disposable Sperm Slide?

Leja is the global leader in disposable Sperm Counting Slides/slides, specializing particularly in the field of **Computer-Assisted Semen Analysis (CASA)**. It is not an ordinary slide, but a **precision-manufactured microscopic counting slide featuring a fixed-depth sample well**.

**Core Design Principle**: Typically composed of two high-precision optical glass plates, it features a specialized spacer or groove structure between them, creating an extremely **precise and uniformly flat sample well**. Users simply dispense a small amount of semen into the sample inlet. Through capillary action, the sample automatically and evenly fills the entire observation area, forming a liquid film of consistent thickness.

Core Advantages (Why it's the “Gold Standard”)

1. **Depth Accuracy and Consistency**:

* This is the **fundamental advantage**. CASU offers multiple standard depths (e.g., **4μm, 10μm, 20μm, 100μm**) with extremely tight tolerance control (e.g., ±1%). Absolute depth uniformity ensures consistent focal length across any field of view under the microscope, resulting in **highly accurate** concentration calculations during CASA software analysis.

2. **Standardization and Reproducibility**:

* Using counting chambers with standardized depths enables **comparability** of results across different laboratories and CASA devices worldwide. Experimental outcomes remain consistent regardless of operator-dependent factors like smear preparation techniques or thickness variations, significantly enhancing analytical reproducibility.

3. **Extremely Simple and Rapid Operation**:

* Completed in three steps: “Drip-Wait-Observe.” Unlike traditional hemocytometers requiring manual coverslip placement, precise sample addition, and sedimentation waiting, this **eliminates operational errors and sample waste** while drastically reducing time (slide preparation takes approximately 30 seconds).

4. **Ideal imaging quality**:

* Constructed from high-quality optical glass with excellent light transmission, a flat surface, and no distortion. Provides a **clear, stable image background** for CASA system autofocus and sperm tracking.

5. **Hygienic and safe**:

* Single-use design eliminates risks of sample cross-contamination and inadequate cleaning, complying with modern laboratory biosafety standards.

Primary Product Series and Selection

CASA slides are primarily differentiated by their **sample well depth**, catering to diverse applications:

10μm Human Semen Routine Analysis (Most Commonly Used) Some laboratories find this depth more suitable for high-concentration samples. Also aligns with WHO-recommended standard depth. |

20μm: Deeper for samples with lower motility or animal semen, providing more space for weaker sperm to move, facilitating CASA capture of motility trajectories. Commonly used for semen analysis in livestock such as cattle and pigs. |

100μm: Maximum depth for undiluted raw semen or viscous samples, used for direct observation of untreated semen's overall condition or for specific research purposes. Not suitable for precise concentration calculations. |

Through its revolutionary design, the CASA disposable sperm slide transforms semen analysis from a technique highly dependent on operator experience into a standardized, automated, and repeatable precise process. It serves as an indispensable “physical standard component” for modern CASA systems, providing the **precision, standardization, and convenience** that form the cornerstone of accurate and reliable semen analysis results. Though costly, it remains the undisputed choice for **assisted reproductive centers, large hospital fertility clinics, high-end breeding institutions, and research organizations** demanding precise results.

Is there a suitable domestic brand of disposable sperm quality sperm chamber slide that can perfectly match IMV LEJA's CASA analysis system and replace IMV's disposable sperm slide?

The answer is yes. After years of R&D and refinement, our domestically produced ASCEN disposable sperm slide  have overcome technical barriers. These plates offer high cost-effectiveness and superior quality, making them the optimal replacement brand for IMV LEJA Sperm Chamber Slide.

The Chinese brand ASCEN CASA semen counting chamber slides can replace IMV LEJA slides and Minitube slides for sperm analysis in animal breeding genetics, artificial insemination of pigs, boars, and cattle. They are fully compatible with computer-assisted semen analysis (CASA) software systems including IMV Hamilton Thorne IVOSII, CEROSII, Minitube Androscope, and Androvision!
