Are you SERIOUS??? You pay a lot more for them to do THAT!!!!

Do they spit on the spermies too??? Image
Here you go smart ass:
How is assisted hatching performed?

1. The embryo is held with a specialized holding pipette.

2. A very delicate, hollow needle is used to expel an acidic solution against the outer "shell" (zona pellucida) of the embryo.

3. A small hole is made in the shell by digesting it with the acidic solution.

4. The embryo is then washed and put back in culture in the incubator.

5. The embryo transfer procedure is done shortly after the hatching procedure. Embryo transfer places the embryos in the woman's uterus where they will hopefully implant and develop to result in a live birth.

OH I'm not supposed to put the makeup ON the resume??

I don't wear makeup anyways so I guess it will have to be the burrito sauce instead

Damn 5! I have 3 printed out. I guess I will print 2 more!!!
