EQUIPMENTS

• Basic equipment for cell and embryo culture (cell culture rooms with incubators, laminar flows, material for the preparation of culture media, including the production of ultrapure water devoid of organic contaminations...)
• Basic equipment for molecular biology (PCR, electrophoresis, speed-vacuum, gel reader,...)
• Equipment for microfluorimetry (inverted microscope connected to a photometer and photomultiplier)
• Equipment for time-lapse cinematography allowing the study of the kinetics of development of embryos during one week periods
• Equipment for embryo freezing (programmable freezing machine allowing the cooling up to -40°C in an alcohol bath in controlled condition)
• Equipment for micromanipulation (allowing biopsy and microinjection of oocytes and embryos)
