IVF technology has so far reached the fourth generation. Currently, only Huizhong Huimei NHFC has the conditions to implement the fourth-generation IVF technology (U egg reconstruction technology), and most countries are applying the third-generation IVF technology, as well as the second-generation and first-generation technology. The fourth-generation IVF technology is based on the third-generation IVF technology. It better helps older women with poor egg quality and women who have failed IVF multiple times, so that they can have a healthy baby. The world's first fourth-generation IVF (U Egg Reconstruction) was born in April 2016. Professor John Zhang, NHFC Technical Director of Huizhong Huimei, led a team member to help a 49-year-old Jordanian mother give birth to a healthy baby boy .

The Jordanian mother has Leigh syndrome, also known as subacute necrotizing cerebrospinal myelopathy, a neurodegenerative disease caused primarily by mitochondrial defects. Because of Lai's syndrome, a quarter of the woman's mitochondria carry genes for subacute necrotizing cerebrospinal myelopathy-which prevented her child from developing normally. She had 4 abortions, and two of them were lucky The children also died because of the genetic disease. The fourth-generation IVF (U egg reconstruction) technology puts the patient's egg cell nucleus into a healthy cytoplasm for cultivation, so that the egg cells can mature healthily and then combine with the father's sperm cells, just like a conventional in vitro fertilization procedure. The successful pregnancy and birth of this Jordanian woman also shows that this technology can completely help a woman with advanced age, multiple test tube failures or a genetic disease to obtain a healthy egg cell, greatly increasing the chance of test tube success in this part of the population. .
