Presentations from ESHRE 2024
If you missed any of our presentations from our Academy Studio, we have collected them below.
Webinar: ‘Is it time we move away from the use of Zwitterionic buffers during the ICSI procedure?’
The way we perform ICSI have been the same for many years, placing the oocytes most of the time in a buffer medium to avoid pH changes. In this talk Dr. Robert Mendola, Lab Director, CCRM-NJ, USA, looks at the effects of HEPES and MOPS buffered medium and it’s impact on the oocytes when compared with doing the ICSI procedure in a bicarbon buffered medium.
