These micropipettes are supplied in boxes containing 10 individually packed and sterile units. This packaging format facilitates convenient handling and storage in the laboratory.
Common Causes : Variability in pipette tip size or shape Embryo positioning inconsistencies Inadequate zona opening techniques or tools Resolution Path : Use biopsy micropipettes from a reliable, precision-controlled manufacturer Standardize embryo orientation and zona opening method (e.g., laser or acid Tyrode) Ensure all embryologists follow a unified protocol for blastomere/TE extraction Document every biopsy step for pattern recognition and optimization
Blastomere Biopsy Micropipettes are specialized tools designed by Monash Biotech for performing blastomere biopsy in assisted reproductive technology (ART) procedures. These micropipettes are used for precision cell sampling during embryo biopsy.
Monash Biotech offers three categories of Blastomere Biopsy Micropipettes, each with various angles and designs: Straight, flat & 15° to 45° angled micropipettes (Catalogue No. MBB-F-S) Flat & 15° to 45° angled micropipettes (Catalogue No. MBB-F-M) Bevelled 15° to 45° angled micropipettes (Catalogue No. MBB-B) Each category has specific models with different angles and identical inner diameters (I.D.) of 30μm or 35μm.
Our Blastomere Biopsy Micropipettes offer precision and performance, available in two carefully selected inner diameters: 30µm and 35µm. These sizes are optimized for delicate blastomere biopsy procedures.
The taper length of our [Blastomere Biopsy Micropipettes](https://www.monashbiotech.com/blastomere-biopsy-micropipette/ "Blastomere Biopsy Micropipettes") is 900 micrometers.
The taper length of the micropipettes is 900μm, contributing to precise and controlled cell sampling during blastomere biopsy.
Experience precision and control with our Bevelled Blastomere Biopsy Micropipettes, available in a wide range of angles: from 15° to 45°, as well as 0° (straight). This versatility allows for optimal manipulation during biopsy procedures.
Our flat Blastomere Biopsy Micropipettes are available in angles ranging from 15 to 45 degrees. This range allows for precise and controlled manipulation of blastomeres during biopsy procedures.
Common Causes: Static charge build-up on the pipette Suboptimal viscosity or composition of handling media Rough or unpolished pipette tips Solutions: Switch to anti-static-treated or fire-polished micropipettes Use media with proper protein concentration (e.g., HSA or BSA) Briefly rinse the embryo with fresh media if sticking is noticed Maintain consistent humidity and avoid plastic-on-plastic friction
