| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We aimed to develop an in vitro embryo production device which allows three steps of sperm selection, fertilization and culture on a microdevice. We have integrated the sperm sorting function combining with swim-up and swim-down methods onto the device. To evaluate the device functions, sperm sorting experiment, in vitro fertilization experiment, and embryo culture experiment have been carried out. As results, we concluded that the device has ability to produce high quality embryos by integrating the sperm sorting function. This concept will open and enhance the management of an individual embryo for assisted reproductive technology, livestock breeding, and fundamental stage research by further development.
