This fully updated new edition of a successful and popular practical guide is an indispensable account of modern in-vitro fertilization practice.
Initial chapters cover theoretical aspects of gametogenesis and embryo development at the cellular and molecular level, while the latter half of the book describes the requisites for a successful IVF laboratory and the basic technologies in ART. Advanced techniques, including pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, vitrification, and stem-cell biology, are reviewed, with up-to-date analyses of these ground-breaking technologies.
Packed with a wealth of practical and scientific detail, this is a must for all IVF practitioners.
"An excellent handbook for good IVF laboratory practice right down to a description of total quality management (TQM) systems ... concise, well written and should be mandatory reading for all potential and actual embryologists, as well as for those clinicians seeking a wider understanding of the subject."---Human Fertility
"The authors are masters of this work. Their views are up-to-date, practical, and well documented. This work will be of greatest interest to clinical practitioners of in-vitro fertilization who want a relatively short and very precise overview of laboratory methods. It is highly recommended."---John E. Buster, Fertility and Sterility
