This study was an investigation of metabolism during bovine preimplantation development
from the oocyte up to the hatched blastocyst derived in vitro or in vivo. Metabolism was …

One-cell CF-1× B 6 SJLF 1/J embryos, which usually exhibit a 2-cell block to development in
vitro, have been cultured to the blastocyst stage using CZB medium and a glucose washing …

Embryo-culture techniques were used to study the effects of exposure to glucose-deficient
culture media on rat embryos during organogenesis. Embryos and their extraembryonic …

THE elucidation of the pathways of carbohydrate metabolism utilized by preimplantation
mammalian embryos is of importance to many areas of reproductive physiology and …

Metabolic control during preimplantation development may be either intrinsic to the embryo
or extrinsic, ie mediated via the environment within the female tract Intrinsic control is …

A quantitative calculation was made of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) activity in
preimplantation mouse embryos from the 2-cell through the late blastocyst stage. This …

The development of two-cell, eight-cell and morula stages of the mouse embryo in
phosphate-buffered medium incubated aerobically was limited to that which occurred during …

Along with the transition from maternal to embryonic genome control the mammalian
preimplantation embryo undergoes significant changes in its physiology during …

A high‐glucose concentration in the reproductive tract during early development may result
in aberrant embryo or fetal development, with effects that could have a greater impact on …

Pyruvate is added to all media used for human in vitro fertilization and embryo culture, but its
function (s) in the early embryo is unknown. We tested the possibility that pyruvate can act as …
