Generally, the specimens are examined at × 20 or × 40 magnification. Depending on the methodology employed (see Chapter 9), an appropriate counting chamber (Makler Chamber, disposable counting slide, hemocytometer) is used to perform the sperm count and motility (11). General laboratory supplies are also required to prepare semen for insemination. Sterile-graduated pipets, able to measure 1, 5, and 10 mL can be used or sterile 1- to 2-mL transfer pipets. Transfer pipets are equipped with a suction bulb, whereas the sterile-graduated pipets require a mechanical bulb or electric pipet-aid to aspirate the specimen into the pipet.

This incubator can also be used to hold the semen specimen during liquefaction time prior to initiation of processing and to hold the final prepared specimen before insemination. A small clinical centrifuge is needed to process the specimens and must be able to spin the tubes at approx 300g. Various types and models of centrifuges are available—some with fixed speeds and others with adjustable speeds. A timer is also essential because the centrifugation procedure is timed at each step of the processing protocol.
