Randomized trial of two media used for in vitro fertilization
Abstract
Culture media are important components of IVF. Their selection must meet the need for efficiency, and also economic and practical requirements. From these standpoints, we compared two widely used media: Ham's F10 supplemented with cord serum and Menezo B2 used without serum. The test followed a randomized protocol using two series of 159 and 162 oocytes. Since no difference was seen in efficiency assessed from cleavage rate, the discussion focuses on cost and ease of use.
