Semen extending calculator

Some of the entry fields here are optional, and the page can be used to only calculate doses, or to allow creation of a printable form for sending with the shipment. Those fields that have a number already entered in them have the standard industry default value in place. The entry may be changed if desired by highlighting, backspacing, and typing in the new entry. Some extenders will automatically default to the antibiotic in use with that extender. Those cannot be changed.

It is essential that the following selections be completed:

Volume
Sperm concentration
Sperm Progressive Motility
Under "Targeted Number of Sperm in each Dose" select either "Total Sperm" (for shipping a fixed number regardless of motility) or "Progressive" for shipping a specific number of progressively motile sperm. Default is "Total Sperm".
Under "If a fixed final volume must be shipped..." select either "Variable" if you do not require a specific volume be shipped, or if a fixed volume is required (such as in a centrifuge tube or syringe), select "Fixed". Default is "Variable". If "Fixed" is selected, default volume is 57.75 ml, which is the actual volume of a 50-ml centrifuge tube when filled to the top (change this volume as desired).
