Nikon's New Microscope Aims to Boost Fertility Treatment Efficiency

Nikon Europe B.V. is set to launch the ECLIPSE Ti2-I Motorized Inverted Microscope on July 5, 2023. This new tool is designed to support embryologists in micro-insemination procedures, particularly ICSI and IMSI, aiming to reduce their workload and enhance fertility treatment technology.

The ECLIPSE Ti2-I is equipped with an alert function and offers a bright, clear field of view, ensuring accurate operation. It is specialized for use in micro-insemination, with Nikon's unique optical technology making it easier to identify the spindle in eggs during these procedures.

The microscope features an angled touch screen and integrated buttons for intuitive operation and to prevent operational errors. It allows automatic control of settings via simple buttons and a touch screen, reducing operational steps by approximately 75%. This consolidation of multiple observation settings into simple buttons enables easy switching of observation modes with a single touch.

The increasing demand for infertility treatments, due to the declining birthrate in developed countries, has led to a significant rise in the workload of embryologists. The number of cycles has doubled from 600,000 in 2011 to 1 million in 2019. The ECLIPSE Ti2-I is designed to address this challenge, helping to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of fertility treatment technology.

Nikon's ECLIPSE Ti2-I, launching on July 5, 2023, is poised to become a valuable tool in micro-insemination procedures. With its intuitive operation, reduced operational steps, and enhanced observation capabilities, it aims to support embryologists in their crucial role and contribute to advancements in fertility treatment.
