Technical Name SPERM SORTER AND SPERM SORTING METHOD
Project Operator NATIONAL TSING HUA UNIVERSITY
Project Host 曾繁根
Summary The present sperm sorting chip utilities the upstream swim characteristic of sperms in appropriate fluid velocity to achieve up to 80 high motility sperm yield for infertile males in just 40 minutes
Market Potential Analysis 目前臺灣不孕症比率約為15%,而男女所佔之因素約為各半,根據衛生福利部公布,106年約接近4萬人次接受人工生殖,成功生下9500個寶寶,比前ㄧ年多出600人體外人工受孕全球市場規模在2018約為125億美金,至2026年可成長至263億美金,全球約有8500萬的不孕症患者,且平均療程次數約為3次。此晶片除了會投入在台灣,也會先投入印度和中國的市場,其因是市場人口數大及市場為全球成長最快速的不孕症市場,市場尚未飽和,此時透入此兩地市場時間點在適合不過。
Industrial Applicability For infertile males with oligospermialow sperm motility the present chip could yield high motile spermsthus higher fertilization rate for subsequent different infertility treatment such as IUI, IVFICSI.
