ScienceDaily (Feb. 12, 2008) — Trying to conceive with fertility technology? A new method could help some couples who are childless against their will. The microscopic procedure significantly improves the success rate of ‘ICSI’ (intracytoplasmic sperm injection). This was discovered by scientists at the University of Bonn together with colleagues from China and industrial partners in a study of 124 women. Up to now, the desire to have a child is only fulfilled for every third couple that decides to have ICSI. In a study the artificial insemination method was twice as successful.
