Type of culture media does not affect embryo kinetics: a time-lapse analysis of sibling oocytes

Are the morphokinetics of growing embryos affected by the type of culture media utilized?Morphokinetic parameters used for embryo selection are not affected between the two different concept culture media analyzed.Studies on the effect of culture media on human embryos have focused on evaluating different in-house and commercially available media as well as comparing outcomes among different commercial media. Nonetheless, the evaluation of embryo development in these studies was based on static observations and very little is known from a dynamic point of view.Prospective cohort study, October 2010 and April 2011.University-affiliated infertility center. Patients undergoing egg donation (n …
