Cytoskeletal analysis of human blastocysts by confocal laser scanning microscopy following vitrification
25 Oct 2011
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Vitrification of human blastocysts is being used increasingly to cryopreserve supernumerary embryos following IVF. In this study, we investigate the effects of aseptic vitrification on the cytoskeleton and development of human blastocysts, by analysing survival rates and spindle and chromosome configurations by fluorescence and confocal laser scanning microscopy. METHODS: A total of 55 fresh...
