Abstract
Two noncontact techniques based on the use of ultrashort laser pulses are presented for assisted reproductive technologies. The first creates a unique alphanumeric code on an embryo’s envelope to simplify its identification during the period of preimplantation development. The second ensures the embryo will start to hatch at a prescribed site via laser-assisted drilling of its shell at the early blastocyst stage, where the inner cell mass and trophectoderm cells can be distinguished clearly.
