Abstract:
In vitro culture (IVC) of embryo is the focus of assisted reproductive technology. Changes in the physical and chemical environment during embryo culture will affect the quality of embryo. In recent years, a dynamic IVC method based on microfluidic chips, with the powerful capability in microfluidic and micro-substance control, can significantly ameliorate the developmental potential of embryos, and it has become a novel and effective method for the study on the IVC of embryo, which has obvious advantages compared with the traditional static micro-drop culture method. This article reviews the latest research progress of microfluidic chip technology applied to the IVC of embryo.
