Culturing device, culturing liquid and culturing system for external fertilization of human ovums and sperms and early development of embryo

Abstract

The invention discloses a culturing device, a culturing liquid and a culturing system for the external fertilization of human ovums and sperms and the early development of an embryo. The culturing device comprises at least two thermostatic culturing chambers, two small-sized air bottle chambers, a mixed gas filtering device, an air pressure protecting device, a mixed gas thermostatic preheating chamber, an air supplying pipe and the like, wherein each culturing chamber is a confined space with the volume of at least 100ml. The culturing liquid contains sodium chloride, magnesium sulfate, monopotassium phosphate, sodium bicarbonate, ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, taurine, sodium pyruvate, L-lactic sodium lactate, glucose, gentamicin, alanine-glutamine dipeptide, 18 types of L-lactic amino acids except alanine and glutamine, and the like. When the culturing device and the culturing liquid are used, the external fertilization of the human ovums and sperms and the whole process of the development of the embryo before embryo implantation can be finished; the high-quality blastocyst forming rate and the embryo implantation rate are obviously increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a culture device and a culture system for in vitro fertilization of human eggs and sperm and early embryo development. Background technique [0002] Human in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer technology (In Vitro-Fertilization and Embryo Transfer, IVF-ET) has been developed for more than 30 years and has made great progress. The current in vitro fertilization and embryo culture are all completed in a carbon dioxide incubator, relying on the interaction and communication between the constant temperature and constant concentration of carbon dioxide in the incubator and the chemical components in the medium to maintain the sperm and egg fertilization and embryo growth. physiological environment. However, there are some defects or deficiencies in the existing culture system, whether in the hardware equipment (cultivation device or incubator) or in the culture medium. As far as the hardware is concerned, the existing culture dev...
