Term Description

This test determines the percentage of sperm in a patient sample that have normal chromatin.

Part Description

LP207286-8   Spermatozoa.normal chromatin
Chromatin is the genetic material that condenses to form chromosomes during eukaryotic cell division. Emerging evidence suggests associations between DNA integrity and chromatin organization in spermatozoa and fertility (Sakkas et al., 1998; Aitken & Krausz, 2001; Virro et al., 2004). Spermatozoa morphological defects have been associated with increased DNA fragmentation (Gandini et al., 2000), an increased incidence of structural chromosomal aberrations (Lee et al., 1996), immature chromatin.

Change Reason
Release 2.79: COMPONENT: Triggered by Coll w SCT: This is a specific fraction case where the denominator is percentage or /100. Because the logic is that the percentage piece is captured by Property: NFr (Numeric Fraction), and by Unit: %, therefore, it is redundant to include "100" in the component;
