The aim of the semen processing technique has been to remove seminal plasma and facilitate capacitation. Additionally, the presence of leukocytes, bacteria, and dead spermatozoa has been shown to be detrimental as it may cause oxidative stress that has an adverse effect on oocyte fertilization and embryo development. Hence, removal of leukocytes, bacteria, and dead spermatozoa is an important step of sperm processing for assisted reproduction. Currently, several sperm processing techniques have been evolved and optimized in the field of assisted reproduction. The requirements for in vitro fertilization (IVF), intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), and testicular sperm extraction (TESE) are different than those of intrauterine insemination (IUI). The yield of as many motile, morphologically normal sperm as possible is a prerequisite for the success of IVF insemination procedure. In ICSI, where injection of a single spermatozoon into the oocyte is performed by the embryologist, sperm selection techniques play a crucial role in the ICSI procedure.
