Review Description

Over the past few years, there has been growing interest in developing new methods of embryo quality assessment to improve the outcomes of assisted reproductive technologies in the medical field. Raman microscopy as an increasingly promising analytical tool has been widely used in life sciences, biomedicine and “omics” to study molecular, biochemical components, living cells and tissues due to the label-free and non-destructive nature of the imaging technique. This paper reviews the analytical capability of Raman microscopy and applications of Raman spectroscopy technology mainly in reproductive medicine. The purpose of this review is to introduce the Raman spectroscopy technology, application and underlying principles of the method, to provide an intact picture of its uses in biomedical science and reproductive medicine, to offer ideas for its future application, verification and validation. The focus is on the application of Raman spectroscopy in the reproductive medicine field, including the application in gametes, embryos and spent embryo culture media.
