Yes. We call it Chromosome Analysis. Here is the description from our genetic testing page:
Chromosome Analysis
Chromosomes are the structures that carry our DNA. A chromosome analysis looks at the number and the structure of an individual's chromosomes. Typically, an analysis of human chromosomes reveals a total of 46 chromosomes. If a sperm donor applicant has an abnormal chromosome numbers or structure he would not be eligible to participate in our program.
