Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Blastocyst percentage

    after 120 hours of culture

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Number of cells of blastocyst measured by morphometric analysis

    after 120 hours of culture

  • Implantation rate

    after one month of embryo transfer.

Study Arms (1)

one single arm

OTHER

All patients are included to complete a biopsy of half part of the embryos

Procedure: Blastomere biopsy

Interventions

The blastomere biopsy will be done after 72 hours of embryo culture. An inverted microscope Olympus IX70 with a heated stage will be used to perform the biopsy. The micromanipulation for the blastomere extraction will be made with a micropipette MBB-FP-M-30 (Humagen).
