Abstract
The use of genetic tests in assisted reproduction is growing fast. Among potential usages, the selection of the most suitable donor profile stands out. Being able to consider the genomic compatibility between donor and recipient is very important in order to prevent certain diseases. Nevertheless, taking this new factor into account can significantly increase the time needed for donor selection. This paper describes a web-tool designed to automatize the comparison of genomic and phenotypic profiles in assisted reproduction practices, which potentially reduces the chance of error and the time needed in donor-matching processes.
