Open AccessBiphasic oxygen tension promotes the formation of transferable blastocysts in patients without euploid embryos in previous monophasic oxygen cycles
This study evaluated whether the concentration of biphasic O2 (5–2%) promotes the formation of qualified blastocysts (QBs) and euploid blastocysts and the probability of cycles with transferable blastocysts. The ...
