Can Pregnancy be Predicted According to ATR-FTIR Spectrophotometry of Incubation Medium of Embryos in IVF

June 22, 2022 updated by: Hillel Yaffe Medical Center
The aim of this study is to examine the variability of culture media composition based on the ATR-FTIR (Attenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) technique on the day of embryo transfer/vitrification. In addition, the study will explore whether variations detected in the culture medium can be linked to embryo quality and the chances of achieving pregnancy.
