Sperm bank

Sperm bank. Tubes of sperm being removed from frozen (cryogenic) storage. The container is filled with liquid nitrogen, which keeps the sperm stored at approximately -200 degrees Celsius. Once the sample is removed and thawed, the healthiest sperm will be selected for use in in vitro fertilisation, to treat infertile couples

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate process of sperm storage and selection at a sperm bank. The image captures tubes of frozen sperm being carefully removed from cryogenic storage, where they are stored in liquid nitrogen at an astonishingly cold temperature of approximately -200 degrees Celsius. The significance of this procedure lies in its potential to assist infertile couples through in vitro fertilization (IVF). Once thawed, the healthiest and most viable sperm samples will be meticulously chosen for use in IVF treatments. This cutting-edge technique offers hope to those struggling with fertility issues, providing them with a chance to conceive. The sterile clinic environment depicted in the photograph highlights the medical and biological aspects involved in reproductive medicine. It serves as a reminder that advancements in science and technology have revolutionized our understanding of human reproduction. While this image does not mention any specific company or commercial use, it emphasizes the crucial role played by sperm banks worldwide. These institutions serve as guardians of fertility, preserving precious genetic material for future generations. In summary, this thought-provoking print encapsulates both the scientific marvels and emotional implications associated with assisted reproductive technologies. It symbolizes hope, innovation, and the unwavering dedication towards helping couples achieve their dreams of starting a family.
