What The Experts Say On pH Monitoring

"The SAFE Sens® system made it clear what the media pH is and how it changes in our IVF Lab. It is easy to set up and very user-friendly. I am extremely satisfied with the performance. They also have great customer service and I recently found their onsite pH reference service to be very helpful to my lab.”

"I tried other types of meters, but this is excellent! It is very easy to use and versatile for the needs of my lab. The readings are very accurate and have helped me standardize and improve my results."

"The SAFE Sens is a great pH monitoring system for our IVF lab that is easy to use and gives all involved a peace of mind and comfort for our clinic’s culture system. In conjunction with the ESCO Miri incubators we have never been happier with our culture system and embryo development has never been better."

We have been using the IVFtech incubator for approximately 8 months. As a user I can say that I think it is good equipment, since it is very easy to use and easy to clean. It is very stable in terms of gas parameters and temperatures, and with the SAFE Sens system I think it is an excellent fit! We have obtained good results with embryonic culture and pregnancy rates. In general, they are excellent products. ”

"This product [IVFTech Incubator] combined with the SAFE Sens technology allows us to maintain the control of the cultures in a fast and easy way, since it makes the reading every 30 minutes which allows you to adjust parameters at the time that is required. “

"In response to Danae’s inquiry [on embryomail] regarding pH meters. I have been using the Safe Sens meter for over 2 years now and have been very happy with how it has performed. It’s very user-friendly and provides a continuous reading of the media pH inside your incubator.”

"After monitoring pH continuously with the TrakStation® surrogate system for culture media, we decided that other kinds of spot monitoring and “virtual” calculation based systems just were not good enough.”

"Measuring the pH for IVF media and which type of pH measuring device (micro pH electrode or blood gas analyzer) to purchase is always a big challenge for embryology labs.
We recently added an online pH measuring device- SAFE Sens- to our incubators which measures pH continuously for 7 days without the hassle of calibration buffers and cost-effective (one within the budget for even small labs). We are happy with its performance."

"We wanted to evaluate the functioning of IVF workstations through assessment of media pH stability. We used the SAFE Sens continuous monitoring system to evaluate media pH over time during routine procedures.”

"pH is a reliable indicator of the environment surrounding the media in which embryo culturing is done. Continuous monitoring, without removing the media from the incubator, ensures stability during the cycle.”

"I think the SAFE Sens is great pH monitoring system for the IVF lab. I tested this in our current incubators for 4 weeks before ordering it for my ESCO Miri incubators. This is not great for pH meter but is great for pH monitoring. The initial pH reading was different about 0.2 to 0.3 to conventional pH meter. After initial alignment; however, pH reading of SAFE Sens was perfectly matched with CO2 reading and conventional pH meter (day1, day 3, and day 5). It is also easy and convenient to use.”

"Traditional bench-top pH meters tend to get clogged with protein from the IVF culture media and pH measurements must be taken outside of the incubator. By exposing the IVF culture media to atmospheric conditions outside of the incubator to take a pH reading, the results could be confounded, and the pH value may not be exactly what it is inside of the incubator."

"The SAFE Sens system allows users to get accurate pH readings from inside of the incubator. This method of pH reading is less prone to confounding variables, and in my opinion, represents the next step in the evolution of pH monitoring in the IVF laboratory."

"Finally, the SAFE Sens monitoring system is designed to take pH readings inside of the incubator every minute or every 30 minutes over the span of a test (which can last up to 7 days). This important feature allows users to monitor pH change in the IVF culture media over time. Analysis of this type of time-lapse pH data could provide further valuable insight on the nature of pH changes over time in IVF culture media in the IVF laboratory.”

"We were very excited about the quality control capabilities that SAFE Sens provides us. In the big picture, everyone measures pH all the time but this does not tell me if there are any changes occurring within my culture system during my culture periods. Via SAFE Sens we were able to identify things we were not doing exactly correct and confirm what we were doing correctly. Prior to SAFE Sens we had no means to do that. "

"Specifically, SAFE Sens enabled us at POMA to enhance our clinical practices including how to manage our dish preparations in terms of timing to reach optimal pH. We were making dishes late in the day and discovered that the pH was not optimal the next morning. We adjusted accordingly and now prepare the dishes early in the morning.”
