Vitrification of human mature oocytes in clinical practice.
2009
Oocyte cryopreservation has long been the focus of unsuccessful efforts to perfect its clinical application. Lately, vitrification has been shown to provide high degrees of success by different research groups. This review attempts to address the efficiency of oocyte vitrification in clinical practice through an analysis of reports of IVF cycles in which embryo transfers have been conducted with vitrified metaphase-II human oocytes.
Embryo culture: can we perform better than nature?

However, in spite of the scientific and commercial challenge stimulating research worldwide to optimize embryo culture conditions, a consensus is missing even in the basic principles, including composition and exchange of media, the requir…
