The follicular fluid being aspirated from the follicle is collected into a sterile test tube that is kept at a constant temperature of 37oC (98.6 oF). The test tube is then immediately passed by an assistant (back) to another one into the embryology laboratory and placed into a heating block to maintain ÔbodyÕ temperature.
