   Keywords : Assisted reproduction technologies Spermatozoa DNA fragmentation Density-gra- dient centrifugation Microfluidics ZyMōt Multi;

   Abstract : Infertility is a worldwide problem and the main reason for the use of assisted reproductive technol- ogy (ART). In-vitro fertilization (IVF) is one ART treatment normally used, where the fertilization of oocytes occurs in vitro. READ MORE

3. 2. Ovary spheroid formation and quality assessment using two different protocols

   Abstract : Redan innan födseln fastställs kvinnors fertilitet, som karakteriseras av ett begränsat antal äggblåsor, så kallade folliklar. Beståndet av folliklar minskar naturligt med åldern, samtidigt som kvinnors fertilitet beror på deras steroid- och äggproduktion. READ MORE

4. 3. The Ecological and Anthropogenic Impacts of fishing gear in a tropical system : How the size of Spotted Rose Snapper (Lutjanus guttatus) and the ratio of target catch, is influenced by approved fishing gear within a marine area of responsible fishing in the South-Western Gulf of Nicoya, Costa Rica.

5. 4. Microvesicles in human reproduction and their role in Assisted Reproductive Techniques

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

   Author : Hala Sawas; [2022]
   Keywords : In Vitro Fertilization; Venous Thromboembolism; Fetuin B; Ovastacin; Flow Cytometry;

   Abstract : Infertility is a problem that could be treated by using In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). This procedure starts by increasing estrogen levels and then retrieving oocytes. However, studies have showed an increased risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE) and lung embolism that is correlated with the rising levels of estrogen. READ MORE

6. 5. The influence of antimicrobial agents on the development of antibiotic resistance in the vaginal bacterial flora of artificially inseminated mares : a study on mares in a stud environment

   Keywords : antibiotics; antimicrobial resistance; bacteriology; breeding; equine reproduction; reproductive techniques; semen extender; stud farm;

   Abstract : In Sweden and in many other countries, artificial insemination (AI) is frequently used in horse breeding. The technology makes it possible to use genetic material from horses in different geographical locations in an effective way, minimizing the risk of infection or even injury to both horses and stud personnel.
