INVITROCARE, INCORPORATED 2002-5 HTF HEPES

HTF HEPES is a synthetic, defined culture medium intended for use in assisted reproductive technology procedures. It has been formulated to mimic the composition of the fluid found in fallopian tubes as defined by Quinn metal (Quinn P, Kerin JF, Warnes GM:Fertil Steril 1985;44:493-498). HTF HEPES uses a combined sodium bicarbonate/HEPES ([4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid]) buffering system and is appropriate for those procedures that do not use a carbon dioxide atmosphere.
