High magnitude of light retardation by the zona pellucida is associated with conception cycles
25 Feb 2005
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Failures in expression of zona proteins correlate to subfertility in animals. Low expression of the zona proteins by the growing human oocyte may indicate reduced developmental potential. Therefore, we non-invasively analysed the thickness and the structure of the zona pellucida (ZP) of human oocytes with respect to embryo fate after ICSI. METHODS: Retardance magnitude and thickness of the inner,...
