Sealed mini-chamber of variable depth for direct observation and extended evaluation of sperm motility under the influence of various gases.
A new chamber for microscopical observation of living cells, e.g. spermatozoa, under hermetically sealed conditions and over an extended period is described. Motile spermatozoa were serially observed for several hours and the effect of various gases on sperm motility has been studied. The chamber could also be used to study the effect of various toxic gases in the fields of microbiology and toxicology.
