Abstract

To investigate the association between Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FLIM) of metabolic function in cumulus cells and 1) oocyte maturity; and 2) fertilization potential. The over-arching objective of this work is to determine whether metabolic function of cumulus cells can non-invasively detect maturity and fertilization of the corresponding oocytes. And to determine whether these metabolic parameters are correlated with maternal age and BMI.
