Abstract
The research subject, “micromanipulation” covers the equipments, microtools and techniques for manipulation and microsurgery at cell levels. The micromanipulation is an essential process in assisted reproduction viz., treating and improving fertility, in vitro embryo production, nuclear transfer cloning, deriving embryonic cells from embryos, pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, cellular genetic engineering, and gene therapy. Besides, the technology has applications in tumor surgery and neurovascular pathology.
Highlights
-
Micromanipulation is an integral component of advanced livestock assisted reproduction
-
Besides, the micromanipulation is used in genome editing and genetic engineering.
