This volume describes culture media and solutions used in human ART; how they have been developed for in vitro human pre-implantation embryo development, the function and importance of the various components in media and solutions and how they interact, and how the systems in which these are used can influence outcomes. Chapters discuss inorganic solutes, energy substrates, amino acids, macromolecules, cytokines, growth factors, buffers, pH, osmolality, and the interaction of these parameters. The role of incubators and other physical factors are reviewed, along with the relevance and prospects of emerging technologies: morphokinetic analysis using time-lapse imaging and dynamic fluid incubation systems. Results of prospective randomized trials are emphasized to ascertain the added value of these techniques for selecting viable embryos. This comprehensive guide will be invaluable for embryologists, physicians and all personnel involved in the fluid products used in human ART seeking to optimize their successful use of these components.

Devenir parent avec la PMA. Une réflexion pluridisciplinaire La part de hasard et d'indécidable qui entourait autrefois la procréation est gommée par l'aide médicale à la procréation. L'enfant, tant attendu, devient un impératif ; l'infertilité peut être vécue comme une calamité, une injustice. Désormais, on ferait un enfant, non pour la société, pour la perpétuation de l'existence collective, mais pour soi et pour lui-même. Mais les sociétés n'ont-elles pas toujours inventé des façons d'avoir des enfants qui correspondent à leur représentation des liens de filiation ? La PMA introduit de nombreuses interrogations, au sujet notamment de l'âge limite de procréation, des dons de gamètes, de l'homoparentalité, du droit de l'enfant. Les contributeurs de cet ouvrage – gynécologues, psychiatres, psychanalystes, juristes, historiens –, tous spécialistes de ce sujet, apportent leurs réflexions au-delà de la technique médicale. Il s'agit que les mères et les pères puissent trouver leur place comme parents, et qu'un enfant soit capable de se reconnaître dans le récit de sa venue au monde.
