Are the eggs cultivated in the same way as the embryos?

Last Update: 08/28/2018

There are some differences in the composition of the culture media used in some and in others, but in general the conditions are very similar.

Despite the fact that both are very delicate, the eggs are extremely sensitive to changes in temperature, so sudden changes must be avoided when handling them from the moment of follicular puncture.
