| Abstract | Infertility is one of the main problems of the 21st century facing both the veterinary and human medicine. A series of assisted reproductive technologies such as artificial insemination, hormone regulation of ovulation, in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer in order to overcome problems of reproductive health. Unfortunately, the outcome of such reproductive biotechnologies, is still below expectations, therefore, new state of art technologies such as microfluidics can revolutionize human and animal assisted reproduction. Development of an integrated microfluidic system for assisted reproduction, which may manipulate female and male gametes, embryos and culture media, and additionally, incorporate biomarker analysis on the same platform, could have a decisive impact on the future of assisted reproduction technologies. Microfluidics has the potential of making assissted reproduction techniques more accessible and most of all improving the success rate in patients experiencing infertility problems. |
