Faced with an increasing demand to select one embryo to transfer back to patients, a number of techniques are being developed to assist in discriminating differences within the cohort of a patient’s embryos. A new and emerging technology which allows us to measure the profile of different metabolites in embryo culture media and formulate a viability score correlated to implantation potential is metabolomics.
