A highly accurate 'non-invasive quantitative embryo assessment for pregnancy'(NQEAP)
technique that determines embryo quality has been an elusive goal. If developed, NQEAP …

Simple Summary With conventional breeding practices, even the best dairy/beef cows will
likely produce no more than half-a-dozen calves in their lifetimes; a crime, would you not …

Non-invasive oocyte quality assessment remains a major challenge of routine bovine in vitro
embryo production (IVP). There is a major need for techniques allowing early selection of …

Although IVF has been performed routinely for many years to help couples with fertility
problems and in relation to modern breeding of farm animals, pregnancy rates after transfer …

Animal reproductive biotechnology is continually evolving. Significant advances have been
made in our understanding of early embryonic mortality and embryo development in …

Background Advancements in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) and convolutional neural
networks (CNN) have allowed pattern recognition in images with unprecedented accuracy …

In-vitro fertilization (IVF) aims at overcoming the causes of infertility and lead to a healthy live
birth. To maximize IVF efficiency, it is critical to identify and transfer the most competent …

Measuring the metabolism of early embryos has the potential to be used as a prospective
marker for post-transfer development, either alone or in conjunction with other embryo …

Conventionally, in vitro–fertilized (IVF) bovine embryos are morphologically evaluated at the
time of embryo transfer to select those that are likely to establish a pregnancy. This method …

Embryo quality is an important determinant of successful implantation and a resultant live
birth. Current clinical approaches for evaluating embryo quality rely on subjective …
