Why choose Cryomate
The most comprehensive donor genetic screening of any US sperm bank
Most sperm banks screen donors using traditional genetic panels covering 260–560 conditions. Cryomate uses Cryogene genetic panel based on exome backbone technology — a fundamentally different approach that sequences the protein-coding regions of the entire genome — to screen for over 1,400 conditions.
That includes more than 400 autosomal recessive conditions and over 600 genes linked to dominant inheritance, including neurological and developmental conditions that most standard panels miss entirely.
What this means for you
More complete screening means fewer unknowns and more confidence in the donor you choose. Learn more about donor genetic screening

Reliable vial quality — prepared for every treatment type
The quality of a sperm vial is determined by what happens in the laboratory. Every Cryomate vial is processed under strict quality control in our CAP-accredited andrology lab, with each batch evaluated against defined parameters for count, motility, and morphology before it is cleared for release.
All vials are MOT-verified — meaning the motile sperm count per vial meets the threshold required for your specific treatment type — and prepared to clinical standards for IUI, IVF, and home insemination. Electronic double witnessing is used throughout the processing and labelling workflow to ensure complete traceability and accuracy.
Inclusive, affirming care — and personalized support throughout
We believe that everyone has the right to parenthood that fits their vision. LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples, single parents by choice, heterosexual couples, and individuals navigating fertility challenges of any kind are all welcomed with the same expertise, discretion, and personal care.

A board-certified genetic counselor involved at every stage
Cryomate’s genetic counseling is provided by Samantha Augustyn, MS — a board-certified genetic counselor who works with our donor program every day. She reviews every donor’s genetic results and family history as part of the qualification process, and is available to meet directly with clients for personalized donor matching and carrier screening consultations
Having a board-certified genetic counselor involved at every stage means the genetic expertise behind every donor profile and every client consultation is consistent, current, and deeply integrated into how Cryomate operates.
CAP-accredited, FDA-registered, and CLIA-certified
Cryomate’s andrology lab holds the three most rigorous laboratory accreditations and certifications in the US — CAP accreditation, FDA registration, and CLIA certification.
