Oocytes and embryos are typically exposed sequentially to varying culture media in
standard in-vitro protocols. Expenditures of energy may be required following each medium …

It is generally accepted that culturing embryos in groups or with somatic cells improves both
the yield and quality of the blastocysts obtained. The aims of this study were 1) to compare …

The techniques of in vitro maturation (IVM) and in vitro fertilization (IVF) of bovine oocytes,
with development of the resulting embryos to advanced preimplantation stages in vitro, have …

Simple Summary Supplementation of the culture media for the in vitro production of bovine
embryos with fetal bovine serum (FBS) is associated with inconsistent outcomes. This study …

The objective was to establish an in vitro system in which bovine oocytes can be matured,
fertilized, and cultured up to the blastocyst stage without support of serum, BSA, or somatic …

This experiment was conducted to determine if bovine embryos derived from in vitro
maturation, fertilization and culture could develop in serum-free medium. Oocytes were …

Our purpose was to obtain viable blastocysts via in vitro maturation, fertilization, and culture
(IVMFC) in serum-and BSA-free media (defined conditions) and to document viability by …

Bovine embryos, derived from in vitro matured (IVM)/in vitro fertilized (IVF) ova, were used to
investigate the effects of timing of serum inclusion in the culture medium and different types …

Abstract Development of bovine embryos derived from in vitro-matured/in vitro-fertilized
(IVM/IVF) oocytes was examined in two culture media: hamster embryo culture medium …

Human oocytes are usually recovered from preovulatory follicles of women treated with
gonadotropins and gonadotropin releasing hormone analogue. The oocytes are usually …
