As shown in Table 1, significantly more embryos developed to the morula/blastocyst and blastocyst stage when vitrified within the cryoloop compared to those vitrified using OPS. Significantly ...

Blastocysts are normally protected from external influences by a coat, the zona pellucida; before the embryo implants in the ...

Early embryonic cell polarity and lineage differentiation, which are vital to implantation, and continued embryonic growth climax with the onset of blastocyst formation. These processes are ...

It typically occurs during the blastocyst stage - when a fertilized egg has rapidly divided into a ball of cells called a ...

In mammalian embryos (blastocysts), the first cell fate determination events occur early during the development, even before implanting into the uterus (pre-implantation). I am interested in ...
