<p>A method for determining the developmental potential of a human embryo in vitro the method comprising: a. determining at least one reference value (tref) which is a characteristic relating to the development of the embryo selected from the group consisting of: i. the time point when the pro-nuclei (PN) have disappeared; ii. the time point when the second polar body is excluding; and iii. the time point when the pro-nuclei (PN) appear; b. measuring the time point of at least one further characteristic relating to the development of the embryo (tx) wherein time zero (to) is at least one of the reference values i., ii., or iii. (tref) to establish a variable value (tvar) c. establishing a development potential for the embryo based on said at least one variable value (tvar). tvar may be calculated as tx minus tref</p> |
