The findings shed new light on human reproduction and suggest pathways for developing treatments to lower the risk of ...
Scientists have detected microplastics in human semen and follicular fluid, the liquid that surrounds an egg in an ovarian follicle. "This is not an isolated finding –– it appears to be quite common," ...
A new study shows that microplastics have been discovered within human reproductive cells. The Cool Down reports that the study, carried out in Italy, found microplastics in 14 of the 18 samples ...
The first few days of a human embryo’s development, known as pre-implantation, are important. It’s when the first cells are formed, and these decide if the embryo can survive, how it will implant in ...
Researchers have captured the very first real-time, three-dimensional images and videos of a human embryo implanting into collagen designed to mimic uterine tissue —a key stage in reproduction. The ...
Wild animals that have acquired adaptations to maximize their reproductive output in some of the world's most extreme conditions may provide answers to some of the most pressing problems in the field ...
Researchers reveal that the guinea pig pre-implantation embryo is very similar to the human embryo, spurring a better understanding of infertility and early human development. CRCHUM researcher Sophie ...
