    What is paraffin used for in IVF ?

    Paraffin oil is used in in vitro fertilization (IVF) as a protective overlay on culture media drops to stabilize pH, maintain temperature, and prevent water evaporation. 

    Hypure® Oil: Heavy and Light - Kitazato IVF

    Purpose and Function

    • Environmental Stability: Covers microdrops of culture media to keep temperature, osmolality, and pH constant.
    • Evaporation Control: Prevents the loss of water from tiny culture drops holding gametes and embryos.
    • Barrier Protection: Shields developing embryos from external airborne contaminants in the laboratory

    Light-Protective Packaging for Embryo and Gamete Safety

    To ensure the highest level of safety for embryos and gametes, NidOil™ is packaged in amber, screw-top bottles that protect against light-induced changes. This precaution is based on documented cases where paraffin oils became embryo-toxic after exposure to light on laboratory benches.

    By shielding the product from harmful light exposure, we help maintain its integrity and safeguard sensitive biological materials during use.
