Method for measuring glucose content in embryo culture medium

This invention discloses a method for determining glucose content in embryo culture medium. In this invention, proteins and amino acids are filtered from the sample using ultrafiltration centrifuge tubes. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is used as the detector, and an external standard curve method is employed to detect the glucose content in the embryo culture medium. The pretreatment step of ultrafiltration centrifuge tube filtration eliminates interference from human serum albumin and some amino acids in the embryo culture medium on the determination of the target component, glucose. An amino-based column is specifically selected; the hydroxyl groups in glucose form hydrogen bonds with the amino groups on the stationary phase of the amino-based column, separating them from other components in the culture medium under the action of the mobile phase, thus achieving separation. The method uses a differential detector to establish an external standard curve for quantitative determination, which is characterized by rapid and simple operation, good repeatability, and accurate results, making it suitable for determining glucose content in embryo culture medium.

Blockchain-based embryo culture image visualization management method and system

PendingCN122364489AImaging processingAlgorithm
This invention relates to a blockchain-based method and system for visual management of embryo culture images, specifically in the fields of medical image processing and blockchain evidence storage. The method involves acquiring time-series images at a preset sampling frequency and extracting the digital digest hash value of the second frame. Boundary constraint processing is applied to the two frames to obtain target region feature images. Morphological variation feature values ​​are obtained through similarity analysis. If the mutation condition is not met, the on-chain rights confirmation request is blocked, and the digital digest is concatenated with the historical root hash value from the local cache pool to generate the target cumulative root hash value. If the mutation condition is met, the target cumulative root hash value is generated by packaging it with the digital digest and submitting it to the blockchain node for on-chain consensus rights confirmation. The sampling frequency and mutation condition are updated based on feedback and optimized parameters. This method addresses the systemic technical defects of existing solutions, such as on-chain resource depletion and severe delays in keyframe anchoring.
