Nicosia, Cyprus, 29th Oct 2026 – Cyprus IVF Centre has published a patient-information guide explaining how patients are linked with their eggs, sperm and embryos through documented laboratory procedures, and how electronic witnessing supports those procedures.
Depending on the laboratory where treatment takes place, safeguards include chip-based electronic witnessing, barcode identification, electronic records and double witnessing by embryologists. The precise methods and verification points vary between laboratories.
The Chip ID Safety System provides an additional electronic identity check at defined laboratory steps, alongside physical labels, documented procedures and staff oversight. An alert requires staff review before work continues.
For donation treatment, donor identifiers and laboratory records maintain the connection between donor material, the recipient’s treatment and resulting embryos while protecting donor confidentiality.
These safeguards support identification and traceability. They do not eliminate all risk or guarantee treatment success.
“Patients place exceptional trust in us when eggs, sperm and embryos are handled during treatment. Electronic witnessing does not replace professional responsibility; it supports our clinical and embryology teams by helping verify identity, record critical stages and alert staff if a potential mismatch is detected.”
— Ümit İnak, Director, Cyprus IVF Centre
Patients considering treatment are welcome to ask the team which identification methods are used in the laboratory where their treatment will take place. The full guide is available at:
