Next Generation Sequencing
The embryo biopsies are stable at room temperature for 1 hour after biopsy completion. Beyond that the biopsies should be kept at 2 to 8 ̊C for up to 24 hours.
Accredited NRL Laboratory

Detects whole chromosome gains or losses, identifying embryos with normal chromosome numbers.
Blastomere or Trophectoderm biopsy from day-3 or blastocyst-stage embryo respectively
Single biopsy (1–5 cells per embryo)
DNA-free PCR tube with 2.5 µL of PBS (0.5%PVA)
No special preparation is required for this test. You may eat, drink, and take your medications as normal, unless instructed otherwise by your healthcare provider.
