DNA testing in Cyprus Fertina IVF Clinic
About the clinic
DNA testing for embryos at Cyprus Fertina IVF Clinic in Famagusta, Northern Cyprus, checks for chromosomal abnormalities and inherited genetic disorders. The clinic uses Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) to examine all 23 pairs of chromosomes. This diagnostic helps identify healthy embryos to improve implantation rates.
Technology and Equipment
The clinic utilizes Illumina platforms for NGS testing. This method achieves a 99.99% accuracy rate when screening for aneuploidy. The laboratory conducts both blastomere and trophectoderm biopsies. These samples undergo rapid analysis, with results ready within 3-4 hours.
Diagnostic Scope
- Chromosomal screening. Detects extra or missing chromosomes across the entire genetic set.
- Inherited disorder detection. Identifies specific genetic conditions through Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD).
- NGS platform. Uses Illumina technology for high-resolution genetic mapping.
- Rapid biopsy analysis. Delivers results in under 4 hours for same-day embryo selection.
Patient Indications
Specialists recommend this DNA testing for individuals over age 35. It is also suitable for patients with recurrent miscarriages or multiple failed IVF cycles. Testing is helpful when a previous child had genetic anomalies or if sperm quality is low. The procedure focuses on selecting the most viable embryos for transfer.
Clinic Standards
Cyprus Fertina IVF Clinic holds ISO certification for its laboratory and clinical operations. It is recognized by the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE). The facility follows international safety protocols for genetic material handling. Patients can request a consultation for genetic screening through Bookimed.

Cyprus Fertina IVF Clinic: more details about the clinic
Fertina IVF is a fertility clinic in Famagusta, Northern Cyprus. It opened in 2012 and operates from a single building with three medical departments. The clinic focuses on evidence-based fertility care and coordinated treatment planning.
Accreditations and Achievements
The clinic meets international standards in reproductive medicine. It holds certification from the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) and is recognized by Top Doctors.
Fertina IVF reports high success rates across its main procedures:
- 99% for gender selection
- 89% for embryo donation
- 85% for egg donation
- 72% for sperm donation

Reproductology and Assisted Reproduction
Dr. Erman Sever, a specialist in obstetrics and gynecology, leads the medical team. Ali Kızılkanat heads the embryology laboratory. He has over 25 years of experience in assisted reproduction.
The team offers several fertilization and retrieval methods:
- Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)
- Cytoplasmic transfer to improve embryo implantation potential
- Testicular sperm aspiration (TESA) for obstructive azoospermia
- Surgical testicular sperm extraction (TESE)
- Embryo transfer on Day 3 or Day 5
Fertility preservation is available through egg freezing using vitrification. This rapid freezing technique prevents ice crystal formation. Patients may also choose embryo cryopreservation for future family planning.
Advanced Genetics and Diagnostics
Fertina IVF uses advanced screening to support embryo selection. This helps patients with recurrent miscarriage or advanced maternal age. Genetic services include:
- Next-generation sequencing (NGS) for embryo assessment
- Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) to identify chromosomal abnormalities
- Sperm DNA fragmentation evaluation
- Hysteroscopy to examine the uterine cavity
Specialists use NGS platforms like Illumina to analyze sequencing libraries. These tools identify genetic variants before embryo transfer.
Obstetrics and Gynecological Care
The clinic supports patients beyond early pregnancy stages. The Women's Health Department manages vaginal deliveries and Cesarean sections. Dr. Erman Sever oversees these services after completing his residency at Kocaeli University Hospital. Diagnostic laparoscopy is available to examine and remove ovarian cysts.
International Patient Services
A coordination team manages international patient needs. The clinic assigns each patient a single International Patient Coordinator. Support is available in several languages:
- English and French
- Arabic and Turkish
- Russian and Albanian
Patients can access online consultations to review their medical history before traveling. The clinic helps with accommodation bookings and airport transfers from Ercan and Larnaca airports. After treatment, the team provides 24/7 support and specific guidance for the first 48 hours following embryo transfer.
