IVOS II (Integrated Visual Optics System) contains hardware and software that offers high-end performance while maintaining its ease of use. Spend less time on learning a new system with the IVOS® II’s intuitive Windows-based software platform. The settings for the integrated optics are made through the software and mechanical adjustments are rarely required.
The fast automated stage provides precise temperature control and easy sample positioning. Set the stage temperature from ambient to 40°C as the system remains constant to within the 0.5°C range. Program the stage for either manual or automatic field selection to fit your analysis workflow.
The IVOS® II sperm analyzer is powered by our user-friendly HT CASA software. Analyze immotile, motile, progressive, and total concentration using WHO 4, 5, or 6 parameters.

The DIMENSIONS II Morphology software automatically classifies the morphology of fixed stained human sperm samples according to the Tygerberg strict criteria.
The DNA Fragmentation Software for human semen samples evaluates the level of DNA integrity from sperm smears prepared with the Halosperm® G2 test kit from Halotech® DNA based on the Sperm Chromatin Dispersion (SCD) Test (Fernandez et al., J. Androl 24:59-66,2003; Fertil Steril 84:833-842,2005).
Performing semen analysis is essential for various animal research studies and animal breeding in farm-animal systems or veterinary care settings. Our IVOS® II sperm analyzer provides an efficient, automatic method for performing semen assessment in the lab.

IVOS II (Integrated Visual Optics System) contains hardware and software that offers high-end performance and throughput speed in busy labs while maintaining its ease of use. Spend less time on learning a new system with the IVOS® II’s intuitive Windows-based software platform. The settings for the integrated optics are made through the software and mechanical adjustments are rarely required.
The fast automated stage provides precise temperature control and easy pre-programmed sample positioning, allowing for repeatability in analysis between technicians. Administrators can setup further automatic stage steps of analysis, verification, archiving and data transfer, to make high volume and rapid line speed analysis seemless.
Set the stage temperature from ambient to 40°C as the system remains constant to within the 0.5°C range. Program the stage for either manual or automatic field selection to fit your analysis workflow.

The HT Morph morphology software automatically classifies the morphology of fixed stained animal sperm samples according to the researcher’s parameters. HT Morph assesses each sperm cell for size, shape, acrosome, tail, and cytoplasmic droplets. The measured values are then compared to the user-defined parameters for classification as normal, abnormal, or rejected cells.
The Animal DNA Fragmentation Software is designed to evaluate the level of DNA integrity of semen samples prepared with the Halomax® (Bos taurus or Mus Musculus) test kit from Halotech® DNA based on the Sperm Chromatin Dispersion (SCD) Test.
