Healthy sperm in the pink with DIY fertility kit ... The test is based on a dye which changes from deep purple in the presence of oxygen to pale pink when the oxygen falls below a certain level. Vigorous sperm consume oxygen as they swim, so a sample of semen containing a large enough number of active sperm will change colour after a short time.
