Abstract
A device for in vitro culture of embryos includes: an array having at least one well formed therein; and a bottom surface formed in the well and made of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). The use of the culture vessel having the well bottom surface made of PDMS has the effect of further increasing the blastocyst formation rate of embryos compared to the use of conventional arrays made of plastic.
