Sperm bank sample
Sperm bank sample. Sperm sample seen through a microscope lens. This is done to check the number and quality of the sperm, especially their motility (movement). This sample is being examined at Cryos International Sperm Bank, Aarhus, Denmark. The worlds largest sperm bank, it has stocks of over 170 litres of sperm (around 130, 000 samples) that are used for fertility treatments, creating more than 2000 babies each year. Photographed in 2012

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a close-up view of a sperm bank sample seen through the lens of a microscope. Taken in 2012 at Cryos International Sperm Bank, located in Aarhus, Denmark, this renowned facility is recognized as the largest sperm bank worldwide. With an impressive stockpile of over 170 liters (around 130,000 samples), Cryos plays a vital role in fertility treatments and has contributed to the creation of more than 2000 babies each year. The image showcases the meticulous examination process conducted by skilled professionals at this cutting-edge laboratory. By observing the number and quality of sperm under high magnification, particularly their motility or movement capabilities, experts ensure that only the most viable specimens are used for reproductive purposes. Thomas Fredberg's photograph offers us a glimpse into the world of advanced technology and medical expertise involved in assessing these microscopic biological entities. The grid-like pattern visible on-screen represents both precision and scientific rigor employed during quality control assessments. As we delve into this remarkable detail captured by Fredberg's lens, it becomes evident how crucial advancements like artificial insemination and in vitro fertilization (IVF) have become for individuals seeking assistance with reproduction. This light micrograph serves as a testament to human ingenuity within healthcare and biology fields while highlighting Cryos International Sperm Bank's significant contribution to modern-day reproductive medicine.
