Ceramide (CER) is a bioactive component of the mitochondrial membrane. In this study, we will investigate the clinical importance of serum CER (sCER) and follicular fluid CER (ffCER) levels in the lipid synthesis pathway and their effect on poor oocyte quality and in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcome.
