Increased number of cells and metabolic activity in male human preimplantation embryos following in vitro fertilization
1 May 1995
Abstract excerpt
The number of cells and metabolic activity of male and female human preimplantation embryos were examined to determine whether male embryos are more advanced than female embryos following in vitro fertilization (IVF). The metabolic activity of embryos fertilized normally was assessed daily by non-invasive measurement of pyruvate and glucose uptake and lactate production between days 2 and 6 after insemination.
