| Table 1. Morphokinetic parameters and morphological events included in the time-lapse annotation. The parameters to be annotated were predetermined and agreed upon before the study onset. The parameters are based on recommendations from Ciray et al. (2014) | ||
| Parameter | Definition | Data collected |
| tPNa | Time at which pronuclei formation can be first identified | Time point |
| tPNf | Time at which both pronuclei have faded | Time point |
| tN | Time from insemination to completion of division of n cells | Time point |
| tM | Time from insemination to formation of a morula, where all cells have compacted and cell membranes are unclear | Time point |
| tSB | Time from insemination to start of blastulation, when the first sign of a cavity formation between two cells is visibly | Time point |
| tB | Time from insemination to formation of a full blastocyst, when the blastocoele cavity fills the embryo with less than 10% increase in its diameter | Time point |
| tEB | Time from insemination to expanded blastocyst, when the blastocyst has increased in diameter with more than 30% and the zona pellucida has started to thin | Time point |
| Even-ness | Even blastomeres at the two-cell stage, less than 20 % difference in size. Preferably at the time when both nuclei are visible | Binary; yes/no |
| Multinucleation | Presence of more than one nuclei in one or more blastomeres at the four cell stage | Binary; yes/no |
