The Science of Incubator Humidity: Does It Really Matter for IVF Outcomes?
Learn how a humid incubator works and how incorporating one can enhance outcomes of development.
Humidity control is often overlooked in IVF laboratory conditions — yet it plays a crucial role in embryo development and overall culture stability. Choosing between a humid or dry incubator can directly impact embryo viability, and the science increasingly supports the benefits of humidified environments.
With compelling scientific evidence, the case for humidified IVF incubators is clear: they better mimic the in vivo environment and safeguard the osmotic stability essential for healthy embryo development.
