We want you to succeed on your journey to parenthood and the technology we use significantly impacts that journey.

That’s why we continually put extraordinary effort and make ongoing financial investments towards advancing our in-house embryology lab technology, capabilities, and practices. The result is a lab so advanced that other fertility clinics in Ontario, routinely rely on us to help treat their patients.

6 Reasons Anova’s Lab
is the Best in Canada

  • 1.

    Pristine Cleanroom Technology

    In any embryology lab, optimal air quality benefits fertilization and embryo development. In our lab, we use cleanroom technology to ensure clean and sterile airflow 24/7.

  • 2.

    Optimized Lab Design

    Our airtight, double air-locked window for the transfer of frozen specimens from our secure storage room to the embryology laboratory ensures that we never compromise air quality, enabling embryos remain in a sterile and secure environment.

  • 3.

    Time-lapse Embryo Incubation

    Our time-lapse incubators feature a multi-room chamber with built-in microscopes and cameras, allowing our embryologists to check on growing embryos frequently without removing them from the safety of the chamber. We capture every moment of embryo development and all the essential information about each embryo.

  • 4.

    On-site Storage for Eggs, Embryos and Sperm

    Our patients’ eggs, sperm and embryos are frozen in a process called vitrification, and then stored in secure, video and temperature controlled tanks that are monitored 24/7.

  • 5.

    Modern ICSI System

    In any embryology lab, time and temperature are critical for success; our ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection) stations have precise temperature controls that allow us to improve fertilization. Our warmed, temperature-censored surfaces keep the eggs, embryos and sperm in optimal conditions to simulate their natural environment.

  • 6.

    Continued Innovation

    We make ongoing investments to ensure we bring our patients the very best reproductive science and technology. We designed our lab with a modular layout so we can continually innovate, allowing us to integrate new technologies and methods as they develop.
