First births using a closed, simplified IVF culture system in a mobile IVF laboratory: a proof-of-concept study
Proof of concept, even with a limited sample size, for the use of mild stimulation and low-cost embryo culture in a mobile laboratory is presented. These promising results support the use of a mobile IVF laboratory in areas where access to ART is costly and limited due to few IVF centres which are mainly located in cosmopolitan centres.
