Quality and quantity of light impacting embryos in vitro ‐Time lapse wins ‐
Time lapse
Time lapse
Time lapse system wins over other microscope light sources
• No radiations from the “danger zone”
• Much lower total irradiation
• X1000 of total energy of Time lapse observation does not
affect mouse blastocyst development

Temperature
• Impactoftemperatureontheoocytemeioticspindle and embryo metabolism is well‐known
• 37°C is commonly used and is based on the estimate of human core body temperature
• ... But in human and animal models, follicle and F. tubes temperatures are 1.5‐2.3°C lower than the rest of the body
• Human study does not confirm any benefit of a slightly lower incubation temperature
