ICSI/IMSI brochure

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document is a technical brochure for Olympus microscopes designed to optimize the Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) workflow. It highlights the features of the IX73 and IX83 microscopes, which are tailored for research use in assisted reproductive technologies.
Microscope Features:
  • IX73 Microscope: Offers motorized observation method switching, allowing quick changes in observation methods and magnification with a hand switch. It supports IMSI and spindle observation.
  • IX83 Microscope: Fully motorized and advanced, it provides similar features with enhanced automation for efficiency.
Observation Methods:
  • IMSI: Allows for the selection of morphologically optimal sperm using high magnification differential interference observation.
  • ICSI: Utilizes relief-contrast observation to assess oocyte conditions without interference from plastic dishes.
  • SL-ICSI: Employs polarizing technology to locate the spindle in mature oocytes, crucial for avoiding damage during injection.
System Components: The brochure includes a detailed system diagram listing components such as control boxes, adapters, and illumination devices, emphasizing the modularity and compatibility of the system with various research needs.
Specifications: Detailed specifications for the IX73 and IX83 microscopes are provided, including optical systems, nosepiece configurations, focus capabilities, and environmental operating conditions.
Additional Equipment:
  • SZX16 Stereo Microscope: Offers a wide zoom ratio and ergonomic design for oocyte and embryo observation.
  • DP23 Digital Color Camera: Provides high frame rates for live imaging and easy recording capabilities.
  • BX53 Biological Microscope: Features high-luminosity LED lighting for bright, high-contrast imaging of sperm activity.
Certifications and Compliance: The document notes ISO14001 and ISO9001 certifications, emphasizing the quality and environmental standards adhered to by the manufacturer.

Observation Methods ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) IMSI (Intracytoplasmic Morphologically Selected Sperm Injection) Olympus' relief-contrast allows the observation of 3-dimentional oocytes in plastic dishes. Relief-contrast observation is used in ICSI to check the condition of oocyte zona pellucida, since it is not affected by the polarizing effect of the plastic dish. SL-ICSI (Spindle Localization ICSI) Mature oocytes in metaphase II can be easily confirmed by observing the appearance of the spindle using Olympus' polarizing technology. The spindle does not always locate near the first...
