Failure to select a viable embryo in a given fertility treatment cycle limits the success rates of current procedures. Fertility clinics rely on a morphological assessment of embryo appearance at a few distinct timepoints during development to pick a viable embryo for transfer. However, embryo development is a very dynamic process and critical stages between observations go unnoticed. This docu...

introduction: the aim of this study was to investigate the growth and development of mouse two cell embryo on human uterine polarized monolayers. material and methodes: human endometrial tissue was obtained from patients who had undergone total hysterectomy. then, epithelial cells were isolated by collagenase i 0.25% and cultured on either ecm gel coated millipore filter insert (polarized) or p...

We explore the growth of planetary embryos by planetesimal accretion up to and beyond point at which pebble becomes efficient so-called Hill-transition mass. Both transition mass characteristic planetesimals that formed streaming instability increase with increasing distance from star. developed a model for large (embryo) embedded in population smaller filament instability. The includes self-co...

Multiple ovulation and embryo transfer (MOET) has the potential to increase the rates of genetic improvement in sheep. However, better realization of this potential requires a higher yield of transferable embryos. Thus we investigated some factors that may contribute to high embryo yield and quality under field conditions, as part of an ongoing MOET program. Comparison of the effects of 2 breed...

although the mechanisms under which sex ratio is controlled in nature remain unknown, researchers have attempted to treat sperm in an effort to predetermine the sex of the offspring. the methods of sperm separation that have been repeatedly reported to isolate fractions rich in x- or y-chromosome bearing sperm are serum albumin gradient swim-up and flow cytometry. however, the ability of the se...

This study involves in vitro androgenesis of Zea mays L. via anther culture. In the first experiment, three embryo induction media were tested in ETH-M82 genotype of maize. The results showed that the embryo structures were established 2 to 3 weeks after culturing the anthers. The effect of induction medium was signifi­cant for embryo frequencies. The obtained results confirm that the induction...

Different livestock sectors as beef industries get benefit from the production of male animals while dairy industries get benefit from the milk production by the female animals. Therefore, it is obvious need to produce the animals of desired sex which can be achieved by predetermining the sex of conceptus at the time of conception i.e. pre determination of sex may be of great economic importanc...

STUDY QUESTION Does uterine peristalsis influence the chance of clinical pregnancy in an embryo transfer cycle? SUMMARY ANSWER The uterine peristaltic wave frequency before embryo transfer is inversely related to the clinical pregnancy rates in fresh and frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Uterine peristalsis participates in regulating fluid migration after mock embr...

BACKGROUND It has become an accepted procedure to transfer more than one embryo to the patient to achieve acceptable ongoing pregnancy rates. However, transfers of more than a single embryo increase the probability of establishing a multiple gestation. Single-embryo transfer can minimize twin pregnancies but may also lower live birth rates. This meta-analysis aimed to compare current data on si...

The Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART) method of embryo grad- ing is unique, simple, and widely practiced, and its use has been mandatory for SART membership programs since 2010. Developed by SART in 2006, the current embryo grading system categories, "good, fair, and poor," are limited because they do not describe the best 1-2 embryos in the interest of keeping pace with the s...
