Abstract

A embryo culture dish comprising: a first sidewall; a second sidewall attached to the first sidewall; a third sidewall attached to the second sidewall; a fourth sidewall attached to the third and first sidewalls, the four sidewalls forming an outer perimeter that forms a generally rectangular shape; a dish floor that is generally in communication with the four sidewalls, the dish floor comprising: a top surface that is at a first elevation; at least one rectangular shaped embryo culture well, the at least one rectangular shaped embryo culture well comprising: an outer perimeter that has generally a rectangular shape; a first slanted wall that comprises a first side of the rectangular shaped embryo culture well; a second slanted wall that comprises an opposite side from the first side of the rectangular shaped embryo culture well, the first and second slanted walls extend downward and towards each other until they both intersect with a well floor of the rectangular shaped embryo culture well, the well floor having a well top surface, and where the well top surface is at a second elevation, the second elevation being below the first elevation; at least one shaped well, the shaped well comprising: an outer perimeter that has generally a shape; a shaped well floor, the shaped well floor having a shaped well floor top surface, and where the shaped well floor top surface is at a third elevation, the third elevation being below the first elevation. A method of using a square time-lapse dish, the method comprising: adding a medium to a square time lapse dish; tilting the square time-lapse dish to an angle α; removing excess medium from a large well in the time-lapse dish, with the square time-lapse dish at angle α; and returning the square time-lapse dish to a horizontal orientation.
