The family of a man who died as he was donating sperm is to receive 190,000 yuan ($30,975) compensation from the reproductive medicine center where the death occured.

The man, a physician and PhD candidate, had donated sperm four times in 11 days at the clinic in Wuhan in 2011, Changjiang Daily reported on Tuesday.

His family claimed 4 million yuan from the center and a Wuhan university they alleged had encouraged him to make the donations. But a court ruled that the center and the man were responsible.
