products description :
MyBioSource is the leading collector and distributor of human biological fluids and tissues for protein isolation, diagnostic manufacturing and medical research. Our laboratory is equipped to handle specific requests for isolation of cells, proteins, pooling requirements or specific aliquots of biological specimens. A brief breakdown of our donor collection capabilities can be found here:Biological Fluid Collection MenuBiological Tissue Collection Menu. Custom preparations, technical support, bulk quantities and aliquoting available. Seminal fluid is the liquid, non-sperm, portion of an ejaculation. Semen is centrifuged to seperate the sperm from the seminal fluid. MyBioSource human seminal fluid can be custom filled and collected per research requirements. MyBioSource follows all HIPAA guidelines for our donors. 45 CFR Parts 160,162,164. During the process of ejaculation, sperm passes through the ejaculatory ducts and mixes with fluids from the seminal vesicles, the prostate, and the bulbourethral glands to form the semen. The seminal vesicles produce a yellowish viscous fluid rich in fructose and other substances that makes up about 70% of human semen. The prostatic secretion, influenced by dihydrotestosterone, is a whitish (sometimes clear), thin fluid containing proteolytic enzymes, citric acid, acid phosphatase and lipids. The bulbourethral glands secrete a clear secretion into the lumen of the urethra to lubricate it. Sertoli cells, which nurture and support developing spermatocytes, secrete a fluid into seminiferous tubules that helps transport sperm to the genital ducts. The ductuli efferentes possess cuboidal cells with microvilli and lysosomal granules that modify the semen by reabsorbing some fluid. Once the semen enters the ductus epididymis the principle cells, which contain pinocytotic vessels indicating fluid reabsorption, secrete glycerophosphocholine which most likely inhibits premature capacitation. The accessory genital ducts, the seminal vesicle, prostate glands, and the bulbourethral glands, produce most of the seminal fluid.
