Currently, there is an inherent contradiction between the multifunctionality and excellent biocompatibility of anticancer drug nanocarriers, which limits their application. Therefore, to overcome this limitation, we aimed to develop a biocompatible drug delivery system for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we employed poly(3-hydroxybutyrate--3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) as the fundamental framework of the nanocarrier and utilized the emulsion solvent evaporation method to fabricate nanoparticles loaded with paclitaxel (PTX), known as PTX-PHBV NPs.

- The study aimed to assess how different sperm counting chamber designs impact sperm motility using computer-assisted analysis techniques.
- The drop-filled Makler chamber showed significantly better results in terms of motility and other sperm kinetic parameters compared to the Leja chambers.
- Structural features of the Leja chambers, like the coverslip thickness and edge shape, did not significantly affect sperm analysis outcomes.
Objective: To investigate the effects of a microfluidic sperm sorter on the routine parameters and DNA integrity of human sperm.
Methods: We divided 40 semen samples into two aliquots and performed sperm sorting using a self-made polydimethylsiloxane microfluidic sperm sorter and the swim-up method, respectively. Then we evaluated and compared the effects of these two methods on the sperm routine parameters and DNA integrity by computer-assisted sperm analysis and sperm chromatin dispersion test.
