Our Laboratory
Where the possibility of having your baby truly begins. More than 50% of a treatment's success depends on what happens here.
The laboratory is the heart of every Assisted Reproduction treatment. It is where your reproductive cells meet, where embryos develop under observation, and where we select the best ones for transfer.
That is why we look after every detail: high-specialty infrastructure, strict security protocols, cutting-edge technology, and a team of experienced embryologists. All to give you the best chances of having your baby.
- +0% of a treatment's success depends on the laboratory
- 0/7 continuous monitoring, 365 days a year
- Gold & Silver REDLARA Seals for our medical and laboratory practices
- 0-5 days of embryo culture under expert observation
Why is the laboratory so decisive?
Some of the most delicate moments of your treatment take place inside the laboratory. Here we bring the egg and sperm together, keep the embryos in incubation for 3 to 5 days to observe their development, and select the best ones for transfer.
The people in charge of this stage are our embryologists: biologists specialized in Assisted Reproduction. Much of the outcome depends on their precision, their experience, and the high standards of the laboratory.
Your path is unique. So is your plan.
We design a protocol tailored to you after understanding your story and your previous tests. No generic diagnoses or protocols.
A laboratory designed to protect every cell
Four things that make the difference in every treatment.
-
High-specialty infrastructure
Facilities designed for an ultra-clean environment, with temperature control, air filtering, and state-of-the-art equipment.
-
Security and traceability
Identification codes, a log for every embryo, and 24-hour monitoring so your cells are always protected.
-
Expert embryologists
A team of experienced reproductive biologists dedicated to every stage of the process.
-
International certification
Practices and laboratories endorsed by REDLARA and with monthly external quality control from PACAL.
Cutting-edge infrastructure and technology
Each laboratory is planned and built to avoid any contaminating particle and provide the ideal environment for embryo development.
- One-piece floors with rounded corners and special paint imported from Europe that emits no toxic substances
- A macro air system that filters particles from outside and keeps the environment free of contaminants
- High-tech laminar flow cabinets that control temperature and prevent contamination
- Equipment set at 37 °C to emulate body temperature
- Anti-vibration tables built with NASA technology, which prevent movements that could damage the eggs
- An exclusive power plant to guarantee a continuous supply to the equipment
- Special incubators that keep embryos in the right environment for their development
All under international standards and permanent monitoring.
Your embryos, protected at all times
The perfect handling of embryos is essential for your peace of mind. In all our laboratories we use security codes that precisely identify each patient's cells and embryos, along with protocol documentation and a log of every embryo's development.
Each dish is labeled for correct patient identification. We also have a complete alarm system and a virtual network that monitors the facilities 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Certifications that back every result
Our Embryology, Andrology, and In Vitro Fertilization laboratories meet the highest quality standards, endorsed by national and international bodies.
- The REDLARA certification recognized us with the Gold and Silver Seals for our medical practices and our IVF laboratory.
- The PACAL program evaluates more than 3,800 laboratories in the country every month, and we remain among the top performers.
- Daily internal controls that back the accuracy of every study and every procedure.
Frequently asked questions about our laboratory
What exactly happens in the laboratory?
It is where the egg and sperm are brought together, embryos are cultured for 3 to 5 days under observation, and the best ones are selected for transfer. Procedures such as microinjection (ICSI) and the cryopreservation of eggs, sperm, and embryos also take place here.
How do you make sure embryos are not mixed up?
We use security codes that identify each patient's cells and embryos, we label every dish, and we keep a log of each embryo's development, all under 24-hour monitoring.
What certifications does the laboratory have?
We hold REDLARA's Gold and Silver Seals and take part in PACAL's monthly external quality control, where we remain among the top performers nationwide.
Who works in the laboratory?
Embryologists: biologists specialized and trained to work in an Assisted Reproduction laboratory. They are responsible for looking after every stage of the process that will lead to your baby.
What happens if the power supply is interrupted?
Each laboratory has an exclusive power plant and an alarm system, ensuring the equipment always has power and the embryos stay protected.
How long are embryos cultured?
Usually between 3 and 5 days. During that time we observe their development to choose the embryos with the best characteristics before transfer.
