Minitube Photometer SDM1 Multispecies

Minitube Photometer SDM1 Multispecies: Your precise measurement solution for sperm concentration

Get started with the Minitube Photometer SDM1 Multispecies and experience a new era of semen analysis. This device allows you to quickly and accurately determine sperm concentration for a variety of species, including pigs, cattle, horses, dogs, sheep, and goats. You benefit from a universal calibration that guarantees maximum precision in semen density measurement.

Another key advantage: you don't need to dilute your semen samples. This saves you valuable time and steps. Plus, maintenance is minimal because the robust LED light source ensures stable performance and reduces the need for frequent recalibrations.

Using it is incredibly easy and always delivers exact results. As soon as the cuvette is securely positioned, you start the analysis, and the device automatically reads each sample multiple times, averages the results, and shows you the sperm concentration in millions of sperm/ml. Whether in the lab or on the go, thanks to its flexibility with mains or battery operation, the Minitube Photometer SDM1 Multispecies is always ready for action.
