how to choose best china ASCEN CASA Chamber Slide for IMV IVOSII CEROSII CASA Software System

To choose the best China ASCEN CASA Chamber Slide for the IMV IVOSII or CEROSII Computer-Assisted Sperm Analysis (CASA) Software System, follow these 6 professional guidelines to ensure optimal compatibility, accuracy, and lab efficiency:


 1. Ensure Perfect Compatibility with IVOSII / CEROSII

IMV's IVOSII and CEROSII systems have strict optical and dimensional standards. The ASCEN CASA chamber slide must meet the following specs:

Specification Requirement
Slide size 76 mm × 25 mm (standard microscope slide)
Thickness 1.0 mm glass
Material High-transparency optical glass (not plastic)
Chamber depth 10 μm or 20 μm depending on sample type
Microscope mode Brightfield or phase contrast compatible

2. Select the Right Chamber Depth

Choose chamber depth based on your sample type and CASA settings:

Sample Type Recommended Depth
Human sperm (clinical IVF) 10 µm
Boar, bull, horse semen (animal AI) 20 µm

Tips:

  • For motility-focused CASA tests → 20 µm offers more accurate trajectory tracking.

  • Make sure ASCEN slides offer consistent chamber height tolerance (±2 µm).


 3. Choose Slide Design with Precision Features

Look for advanced manufacturing features:

  • ✔️ Capillary fill system (auto sample loading)

  • ✔️ Dual-channel design (for duplicate testing)

  • ✔️ Anti-static surface (prevents sperm clustering)

  • ✔️ Clean optical zone (unobstructed camera recognition)

  • ✔️ No air bubbles or distortion during filling


4. Select Sterile, Disposable, Single-Use Format

To prevent contamination and ensure quality control:

  • Each ASCEN CASA chamber slide should be:

    • ✅ Individually packed

    • ✅ Sterilized by EO or gamma-ray

    • ✅ Labeled with batch number for traceability

This is essential for clinical labs or GMP-compliant animal AI stations.


 5. Verify Optical Coating / Surface Treatment

Choose ASCEN slides with appropriate surface treatments:

Surface Type Use Case
Hydrophilic coating Improves even sperm distribution
Hydrophobic zones Prevents sample overflow at edges
Anti-fog coating Avoids condensation during imaging

Ensure the surface is optimized for high-resolution CASA image acquisition.


6. Confirm Certification and Quality Standards

A professional CASA chamber slide should meet the following:

  • ✅ CE, ISO 13485 (for medical or veterinary use)

  • ✅ Batch QC and test report available

  • ✅ Compatible validation data with IMV IVOSII or CEROSII (request from ASCEN)


RECOMMENDED ASCEN MODELS FOR IVOSII / CEROSII:

Model Name Depth Compatibility Notes
ASCEN-CS10 10 µm Human IVF / Clinical CASA CE-certified, high accuracy
ASCEN-CS20 20 µm Animal AI (boar, bovine, etc.) Double channel, ideal for IVOSII
