Abstract
Abstract We compare the thermal effect exerted by femtosecond and millisecond pulses during microsurgical procedures on embryos. The linear and nonlinear absorption of laser pulses in an aqueous medium, as well as heat transfer from the focusing region of the laser beam to adjacent regions, are considered.
