LONDON, KOMPAS.com - The team of researchers led by Professor Stefan Schlatt from the University of Munster, Germany, successfully growing rat sperm in the laboratory. Sperm were grown in the dish with the seeds of the cells in the testes of mice and after investigation no abnormality.

These results made ​​researchers increasingly optimistic that one day human beings can remain fertile tidsak have a child without the help of donor sperm. Later, the seeds of human cells in the testes to produce sperm responsibility can be taken and grown in the laboratory.

"I believe that it is possible to grow sperm using tissue chttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifontaining germ cells from testicular sperm taken to further stimulate the production of sperm in the laboratory," said Mahmoud Huleihel, Israeli researchers involved in the research.

As quoted by FoxNews, Tuesday (03/01/2012), Huleihel said, "It took several years for us to arrive at this stage, so a technique for growing human sperm will not come overnight, but we have started the research after the success of the these mice. "

The study is published in Asian Journal of Andrology. The study appeared not long after Japanese scientists managed to turn stem cells into sperm cells, which are then used for fertilization of her eggs. It seems that the future for infertile men to have children increasingly bright.

KOMPAS.com - Naturally, women prefer men voiced serious because it reminds them of the characteristic of masculinity. Unfortunately, according to recent studies, men are masculine voice was a little sperm count.
This was revealed by researchers from Australia which found that men with low-pitched voice decreased sperm concentration in the ejaculate.

"Testosterone does affect the tone of his voice low. However, high testosterone levels can actually suppress sperm production," said Leigh Simmon, Ph.D., evolutionary biologist from the University of Western Australia.

The number of sperm is indeed one important factor to support the success of fertilization. To determine whether the sperm that have qualified, it is necessary the analysis of sperm and seminal fluid (semen) in the laboratory.

In the process of this analysis there are some things that will be assessed by a physician, among others:

- The amount and viscosity of cement

Produced semen from each ejaculate between 2-6 mm (1/2-1 teaspoon). If the amount is less than that, it is feared the number of sperm cells is not sufficient to reach the egg. However, the cement that is too much may dilute the concentration of sperm. Ideally, semen should be quite thick and mengencer about 10-15 minutes post-ejaculation. Seminal fluid is too thick will make the sperm swim harder.

- The concentration of sperm

Also called sperm density, this is the amount of a million sperm per millimeter of seminal fluid. Amounted to 20 million sperm per milliliter are considered as normal.

- The movement of sperm

Measured is the percentage of sperm that can swim and also achieve the goal. One hour after ejaculation, at least 50 percent of sperm cells should be able to swim forward in a straight line.

- Morphology

This is an analysis of the shape, size, and appearance of sperm cells. Each test on 200 sperm cells should not be there any defects that could be called normal.

According to fertility research conducted by researchers in Europe, peningkatakan temperature in the scrotum will reduce the amount of sperm to 40 percent. To avoid the habit of a laptop that is lit.

2. cell phone

Just like WiFi, the frequency of electromagnetic radiation from phones seluluer also potentially damage the sperm. In research conducted by researchers from Turkey proved that exposure to radiation from mobile phones to make sperm to be abnormal, so they are unable to reach the egg. If you have this then the pregnancy is impossible.

3. canned food

In a study published in the journal Fertility and Sterilithttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gify revealed that men had higher levels of bisphenol-A (BPA) high in their urine, sperm quality is usually lower. BPA itself in the body will resemble the hormone estrogen that disrupts the function of male hormones. BPA itself is widely used in the production of canned food, plastic, and furniture.

4. muscle-forming

According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse America, a steroid commonly used to build muscle, have side effects shrink the testicles so that hampered production of male hormones. Steroids, either in the form of gels, pills, or injections, should be avoided because they interfere with reproductive function.

Diabetes Mellitus arise due to the lack of a functioning or disturbance in the function of insulin, so blood sugar rises to far exceed the normal limits
The protein contained in soy known to be rich in arginine and glycine amino acids. Both these amino acids is a constituent component and glukogen hormone insulin secreted by the pancreas gland in our body. Therefore, the higher intake of soy protein, insulin secretion and glukogen into the body tissues would be increased. With increasing levels of the hormone insulin, blood glucose levels will be reduced because some will be converted into energy

Fats, Very good for the human body.
Carbohydrates, as a source of energy or energy in the body
Fiber / fiber, useful for the digestive system in the body.
Vitamin A, on soybean seed comes from carotene, which is the basic ingredient of vitamin A, helping the smooth functioning of the organ of vision and bone growth.

Isoflavones, Association of amino acids with vitamins and some other nutrients in soybean seed is a form of flavonoids. Flavonoids are a type of pigment, such as leaf green substance found in green plants. These compounds typically have characteristic, namely a particular odor.

Calcium is one of the micro minerals are useful for the human body. 99% of calcium found in bone and 1% flowed in liquid membranes, in cell structure and cell membranes. Function Calcium is a mineral that is very important that





Effect of Neurotransmitters, blood circulation and function of muscle tendon
Helps increase bone strength, in order to prevent bone loss (osteoporsis)
