Method for predicting implantation success in assisted fertilization (Verfahren zur vohersage des implantationserfolgs bei der assistierten Befruchtung) EP2857840 A1

The present invention relates to a method for determining the implantation potentials of a plurality of embryos each obtained or to be obtained by assisted fertilization of an oocyte of a female subject, wherein the method comprises: collecting a plurality of oocytes from said subject, measuring, for the plurality of oocytes collected from said subject, the level of follicular fluid granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (FF G-CSF) present in the follicular fluid (FF) of a follicle of each collected oocyte, using at least one reagent useful for the detection of FF G-CSF or FF G-CSF mRNA; and determining from the levels of FF G-CSF measured, the implantation potentials of the embryos obtained or to be obtained by assisted fertilization of the oocytes. The present invention also relates to methods for assisted fertilisation of a female sub
