Sibling Oocyte Study of Medium for In Vitro Fertilization/Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (IVF/ICSI) With no Human Serum Albumine

May 19, 2015 updated by: Hans Ivar Hanevik, Sykehuset Telemark

Sibling Oocyte Study of Medium for IVF/ICSI With no Human Serum Albumine

The purpose of this study is to determine if a new medium with no human serum albumine added is as good as the media conventionally used for IVF/ICSI.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Cells attained in IVF/ICSI procedures are kept in a medium that nurture the cells. Until now all such media have contained human serum albumine. The purpose of this study is to determine if a new medium with no human serum albumine added is as good as the media conventionally used for IVF/ICSI.
