HBA test

HBA test determines the ability of spermatozoid to bind with hyaluronan located in the cover of the egg; therefore it indirectly describes the ability of the spermatozoid to attach to the egg.

Only completely mature spermatozoids with normal morphology and minimum DNA fragmentation can attach to the egg.

Only moving spermatozoids are evaluated with the HBA test.

Standard if the number of spermatozoids that are binding to hyaluronan is ≥65%.

All spermogram markers should be analyzed in total, considering also the age and general health condition of the patient. Doctor-urologist can provide interpretation of the spermogram data.
