Path Fertility SpermQT

SpermQT is a peer-reviewed, proprietary, patent protected epigenetic sperm assay that analyzes the sperm’s genes to measure its ability to find, bind, penetrate, and fertilize an egg SpermQT analyzes the dysregulation in the DNA methylation patterns of 1,200+ genes that are essential for sperm function. The higher the number of dysregulated genes, the lower the quality of the sperm. Based on this measure, SpermQT categorizes the sperm sample as Excellent, Normal, or Abnormal quality.

Complete semen analysis

*Although there are diagnostic tests available, there are currently no FDA-licensed, approved, or cleared tests for donor screening. In the absence of such screening tests, you must use an FDA-licensed, approved, or cleared diagnostic test labeled for the detection of these organisms in an asymptomatic, low-prevalence population (§ 1271.80(c)). The use of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae tests utilizing NAT technology adequately and appropriately reduces the risk of transmission of these relevant communicable disease agents (§ 1271.80(c)).
