What are the Interfering Conditions in Measurement?
- Semen samples that interfere with prostatic epithelial and/or leukocyte cells.
- Situations where there are 1-10 sperm in the environment, (Advanced OAT)
- Conditions with high sperm count
- Applying more than the recommended volume of sample between the lens holder and the slide

What are the Warnings and Precautions to Be Considered During Product Use?
- Use separate slides for each test.
- Do not add too many samples.
- Do not move the sample loaded slide too much.
- The light of the box turns off after 1 minute. If the light goes out during video recording, re-record without having it analyzed.
- Note that the entire image is homogeneous in the camera after alignment. Particles or flashes of light you see on the screen will affect the count.
- The algorithm is only adjusted for sperm sizes. It will not give accurate results in testing any other material.
- Please do not touch the phone while recording video. If possible, perform the recording on a flat surface, away from conditions that will affect the image, such as sound and vibration. Otherwise, the analysis will not be correct.
- Differences in results will occur between different counts of the same sample. The reason for this is the instantaneous change in the number of sperm entering the field of view.
- Do not change the battery of the lighting system, do not try to repair it.
