Introduction to the professional technology of Golden Gate Fertility Center

Dr. Wei IVF Center Technological Prowess Using cutting edge technology and equipment, the center provides the best assisted reproductive services with dependability and safety. The main services include blastocyst culture and transplantation, sperm, eggs, embryo cryopreservation, frozen embryo transfer, in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer, intraplasmic sperm microinjection, preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) and embryo implantation Prechromosomal Screening (PGS) , etc.
In accordance with European, American and international quality standards, the center has built an ultra-high-level laminar flow embryo laboratory, a genetic laboratory, and a semen analysis and optimization room, and utilize a 24-hour embryo monitoring incubator to improve the environment and quality of embryo culture, improving the implantation success rate and overall pregnancy rate.

Intrauterine insemination (IUI) Process

After sperm collection. The lab technician processes it and remove the seminal plasma. 0.3 – 0.5ml of optimized sperm is collected, injected it into the uterine cavity through the catheter through the cervical canal during the woman’s ovulation period to achieve the purpose of conception.

Intrauterine insemination (IUI) Process

Lab technician takes optimized eggs and sperms in a lab environment and artificially combine to form embryos and then transfer back to the mother’s uterus for implantation. The whole process mainly involves egg collection after superovulation, sperm selection, embryo culture in vitro, gametes and embryos. Embryo freezing and thawing, embryo transfer, etc.

Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)

For patients whose sperm eggs cannot be fertilized normally, a microscopic manipulation technology is used to directly inject a sperm into the cytoplasm of the oocyte to form a fertilized egg.

Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS)

The pre-implantation genetic screening technology can select embryos with a normal number of chromosomes for implantation, thereby reducing spontaneous or artificial abortions caused by chromosomal abnormalities and improving the success rate of IVF. The PGS of our center not only adopts array -CGH technology , but also introduces more advanced next generation sequencing technology (NGS) to provide fast, high-accuracy and high-resolution chromosome gene analysis.

Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis ( PGD )

For patients with family hereditary diseases, in order to avoid the inheritance of the disease-causing gene to the next generation, several cells at the blastocyst stage are obtained by PGD technology before embryo implantation for analysis, and embryos with genetic diseases are excluded for screening. Detect healthy embryos to achieve the purpose of prenatal and postnatal care.

Embryoscope time-lapse system

Embryoscope time-lapse system uses the real-time monitoring system of embryonic development images This system takes a picture every 10 minutes during the culture period to continuously monitor the embryonic development status, and then analyze the embryonic development dynamics before implantation. The software observes the embryos using AI. This technology can not only compare the appearance and shape of embryos, but also provide a wealth of dynamic information on embryo division, so as to select the best embryo for transfer and increase the chance of pregnancy.

Painless anesthesia egg retrieval technique

General intravenous anesthesia is used during egg retrieval to reduce unnecessary pain, eliminate adverse stress reactions, and help build patient confidence. The medicine injected into the body is metabolized by the liver, and will be quickly excreted from the body, with minimal impact on the body.

Semen DNA and mitochondrial examination

Including Y chromosome gene micro-defect inspection, semen DNA fragmentation detection , etc.

Laser Assisted Hatching (LAH)

Using this technique, a small hole is cut in the zona pellucida to help the embryo implant in the lining of the uterus after implantation . For patients with advanced age or repeated test tube failures , it can increase the chance of conception.

Introducing the state of art Lab Equipment of Dr. Wei IVF Center

Laboratory equipments, consumable and non-consumables lab supplies and hardware are all selected from the first-line brands in the industry, and an international advanced 24-hour real-time monitoring system is installed to provide comprehensive real-time monitoring and record analysis for the development of embryos. Avoiding accidents and risks caused by factors such as abnormal temperature and humidity, abnormal concentration of culture gas, volatile harmful gas or liquid nitrogen leakage to the greatest extent, and provide comfortable and secure top- level check-in experience for embryo babies.

Zeiss Microscope

Zeiss of Germany is a leading pioneer brand in optics and optoelectronics in the world, and develops reproductive medical microscope systems for artificial assisted reproductive projects. Dr. Wei IVF Center laboratory uses the highest standard research-grade Zeiss microscopes to carry out various reproductive medical treatments, including IVF , single sperm injection (ICSI), PGT cell slices, laser-assisted hatching, spindle observation, etc. .

24 hour Embryo Incubator

The built-in auto-focus imaging system can automatically locate and measure each embryo, and record the whole process of embryo development in real time. Embryologists can retrospectively analyze and annotate embryos through image data, so as to fully grasp the development of embryos. The use of this incubator can increase the rate of high-quality embryos and blastocyst formation to the highest extent , helping patients successfully conceive healthy babies.

Automatic Sperm Analyzer (CASA)

individual differences in manual inspection, and makes the sperm analysis values less accurate. Utilizing CASA, an automatic solution for sperm analysis is the key to consistency. From key elements like the mass, activity, linearity velocity and activity swing of semen, etc., it provides precise, accurate, fast and complete analysis reports to assist physicians in clinical judgment.

Embryo Micromanipulation System

Embryo Micromanipulation System

Class 100 ultra-clean bench

To ensure that gametes or embryos are exposed in a pollution-free environment, it is suitable for liquid preparation, egg picking, egg dismantling, semen processing, embryo observation, embryo freezing, embryo thawing and other operations.

Phase contrast microscope

Provides special functions such as observation of embryo type, judgment of embryo stage, etc.

Sperm and egg injection surgical instrument

A single sperm injected with ICSI method into an egg cell, increasing the chances of egg conception.
