Eurofins GENTIS launches PGT-FAST – Embryo genetic screening solution with outstanding turnaround time
In recent years, advancements in assisted reproductive technologies have provided the opportunity for millions of couples worldwide to become parents. However, beyond creating embryos through in vitro fertilization (IVF), selecting embryos with good genetic quality remains a crucial factor in achieving successful pregnancies. Numerous studies have shown that chromosomal abnormalities in embryos are among the common causes of implantation failure, early miscarriage, or genetic syndromes in children after birth. Therefore, preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) has become increasingly important in modern IVF procedures. To support fertility centers in optimizing embryo selection, Eurofins GENTIS has launched a new test, PGT-FAST – an embryo genetic screening solution with the outstanding advantage of delivering results in just 15 hours.
