Abstract

See full text

A container or dish is useful for the micro manipulation, micro injection, biopsy and fertilization in oocyte and embryo manipulation and culturing. The dish allows the user to more readily perform procedures used to fertilize oocytes by Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) or other procedures, biopsy embryos and perform additional procedures for use in assisted reproductive techniques (ART), human reproduction and in-vitro fertilization (IVF). The invention allows ease in use, the reduction in the number of micro tools used in the procedure, as opposed to conventional dishes and procedures, and will allow the user to more readily locate the oocytes and embryos to be handled and worked on. The invention will add repetitiveness, consistency, improve efficacy and ease of procedure and may improve outcomes. The invention will also give the user a more ergonomically practical dish for these types of procedures and related protocols. Specimens other than oocytes and embryos can be treated in the container by means of micro manipulation.
