Sperm chromatin dispersion bright field images

This dataset is constructed with 130 images and annotations for bright field microscopic images (20x objective) from results of sperm chromatin dispersion test.

Sperm chromatin dispersion test (SCD) is a microscopic method for determining sperm DNA fragmentation, sperm DNA is dispersed into the gel on the slide by the lysing buffer. Sperms with higher DNA fragmentation produces more single-stranded DNA in the nucleus, and preventing the dispersion process. Wright-Giemsa staining is performed to visualize the DNA on the slide, thus sperms with DNA damage is revealed by the relatively smaller halos.

For steps to utilize this dataset, see the descriptions below.
