Percent and frequency of embryos hatching from the embryonic or abembryonic pole at days 7 and 8

Hatching pole related to the inner cell mass (ICM) Embryonic Abembryonic
Adjacent to the ICM Lateral to the ICM Opposite to the ICM
Day 7 55% (32/58) 28% (16/58) 17% (10/58)
Day 8 54% (28/52) 29% (15/52) 17% (9/52)

A total of 110 embryos were evaluated after bright field and epifluorescence microscopy imaging; 58 at day 7 and 52 at day 8
