Fructose Test

Kit for the determination of fructose in seminal plasma

The secretion of the seminal vesicles constitutes the main fraction of the ejaculate. Seminal fructose concentration can be used as a marker of the seminal vesicular function. Low fructose in semen is characteristic for partial or complete ejaculatory duct obstruction, bilateral congenital absence of the vas deference, partial retrograde ejaculation and androgen deficiency.

The Fructose Test is a quantitative, non-automated, photometric and diagnostic kit for the measurement of fructose in human semen or seminal plasma (fresh or frozen). The Fructose Test may help in assessing the diagnosis and management of male infertility as fructose in semen reflects the secretory function of seminal vesicles.

The Fructose test has a 12 month shelf life from production date. Information about the composition of the product can be found in the material safety data sheet.
