semen test

The general trait test of the semen is to observe the color, transparency, viscosity and liquefaction time of the semen with the naked eye, and the amount of the semen is measured by the amount. The semen consists of sperm and seminal plasma, of which sperm accounts for 10% and the rest is seminal plasma. In addition to water, fructose, protein and fat, it also contains a variety of enzymes and inorganic salts, zinc.
