Currently in vitro culture of mouse preimplantation embryos has become a very important
technique to investigate different mechanisms of early embryogenesis. However, there is a …

One-cell embryos from outbred mice (CF1, CD-1, and Dub: ICR) were cultured in various
modifications of egg culture medium (ECM). The best development was observed in medium …

Abstract Development of preimplantation embryos, from fertilization to hatched-blastocyst
stage, has been a challenging task, regardless of the mammalian species being studied …

Mouse pronuclear embryos were obtained by in vitro fertilization with oocytes of 55 strains of
immature females by gonadotrophin-induced ovulation and epididymal sperm of Slc: ICR …

The morphology, cleavage rate and viability of preimplantation embryos from random bred
Swiss mice were assessed after culture in different incubation volumes and embryo …

Single embryo culture is suboptimal compared with group culture, but necessary for embryo
monitoring, and culture systems should be improved for single embryos. Pronucleate mouse …

Although the mouse is widely used as an animal model for the in vitro culture of human
preimplantation embryos, arguments can be made for the validity of many domestic species …

BACKGROUND: A comparison has been made of the development of mouse zygotes in
either one-step or two-step culture systems. METHODS: Embryo culture, blastocyst cell …

In vitro culture of whole mouse embryos enables the maintenance of growth and
morphogenesis of postimplantation embryos outside the uterine environment. This …

The developmental tables of early somite mouse embryos that are presently available from
the literature give clear and useful descriptions of the differentiation at successive stages …
