- Common in human, effective for laboratory mice.
- Sperm need not be capacitated, they can be epididymal,testicular or even a spermatid.
- Only requirement is genes and cytoplasm
- Even dead freeze-dried sperm have been effective in mice.
- Abnormalities are frequent.
- Power is in the hands of the operator, as it bypasses the process of selection in the female tract.
- Operator must select a single sperm to inject directly into the Oocyte under a microscope.
- Oocyte then placed in cell culture for development.
