THE ZAVOS SEMINAL COLLECTION DEVICE

The Zavos Seminal Collection Device can be used like a conventional condom. It allows the collection of a seminal specimen in its most natural way at intercourse.

Professor Zavos (the developer of this concept and product) has shown for the first time in 1985 that by utilizing this device the male can produce a superior specimen for use in a routine semen analysis, for IUI's and other forms of assisted reproductive technologies.

It also gives medical specialists the opportunity to work with more representative samples than ever before. Studies show that semen samples obtained through intercourse are more viable and superior than those obtained through masturbation.^1,2

Improved specimen viability and increased patient acceptance when masturbation is objectionable, are the benefits that medical professionals have been waiting for.³

	Zavos Seminal Collection Device	Competitive Fertility Condoms	Traditional Collection Method
Non Spermicidal
Psychologically Acceptable
Thin and Sensitive
Easy to Use
Easy to Transport
Sterile
Less Costly

• Non-Spermicidal. Biologically inert non-latex condom maintains sperm viability, motility and velocity. No mold, releases or powders used in condom manufacture.

• Psychologically Acceptable. Allows sample collection at home or other private settings and eliminates patient stress traditionally caused by religious, cultural or emotional objections to masturbation or coitus interruptus ("pull out").

• Comfortable and Gentle. Ultra-thin polyurethane facilitates more sensitivity, satisfaction and higher sexual stimulation, than ever before!

• Easy to Use. The patient simply cleans genitals prior to use, uses condom in a traditional manner, removes condom when erection has ceased after ejaculation and closes condom with a provided twist-tie.

• Easy to Transport. Patient seals condom in compact pouch with patient I.D. label, and transports to physician or laboratory, carrying it flat against the body to maintain desired specimen temperature.

• Sterile. Individually sealed and packaged.

• Less Costly. The ZSCD is priced lower than its leading competition.

Also, special instructions given to patients on how to produce the specimen, as well as, instructions on how semen is to be harvested from the ZSCD for laboratory assessment and processing exist and can be made available upon request from ZDL, Inc., USA.
