To determine the impact of multiple micromanipulation procedures for preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) on embryo development, a retrospective analysis was performed of 9,925 embryos (862 PGD cycles), which were compared with 28,126 nonbiopsied embryos (2,751 consecutive intracytoplasmic sperm injection [ICSI] cycles) from the same time period. Because fertilization rates, the proportion of embryos with > or = 6 cells on day 3, and blastocyst rates were similar in the PGD and control groups, we conclude that multiple micromanipulations on oocytes and embryos can be performed safely for PGD.

Delivery of therapies into skin is attractive for medical indications including vaccination and treatment of dermatoses but is highly constrained by the stratum corneum barrier. Microneedle (MN) patches have emerged as a promising technology to enable non-invasive, intuitive, and low-cost skin delivery. When combined with biodegradable polymer formulations, MN patches can further enable controlled-release drug delivery without injection.

Optical vortices (OVs), as eigenmodes of optical orbital angular momentum, have been widely used in particle micro-manipulation. Recently, perfect optical vortices (POVs), a subclass of OVs, are gaining increasing interest and becoming an indispensable tool in optical trapping due to their unique property of topological charge-independent vortex radius. Here, we expand the concept of POVs by proposing concentric ring optical traps (CROTs) and apply them to trapping and rotating particles.
