A single sperm cell is injected directly into the cytoplasm of an egg during an in vitro fertilization (IVF) process known as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). The gametes are prepared using this method in order to obtain embryos that may be transplanted to a mother uterus. This approach avoids the acrosome reaction.
