Mechanical Agitation During the in vitro Culture of Human Pre-Implantation Embryos Drastically Increases the Pregnancy Rate |
Background: The in vivo developing embryo is naturally exposed to constant vibrations of around 6 Hz, increasing to 20 Hz when the oviductal fluid is mechanically agitated by the cilia. This study examines the effects on viability of subjecting human pronuclear oocytes and embryos to mechanical agitation during their in vitro culture before transplantation.
