Considerable advances in media development for the culture of preimplantation mammalian
embryos have been made since mouse embryos were first cultured and successfully …

Mitochondria play a central and multifaceted role in the mammalian egg and early embryo,
contributing to many different aspects of early development. While the contribution of …

We describe a bovine embryo culture system that supports repeatable high development in
the presence of serum or BSA as well as under defined conditions in the absence of those …

We evaluated the in vitro development of porcine zygotes that were cultured in a novel
culture medium, porcine zygote medium (PZM), under different conditions and compared to …

In this essay, we propose that embryos express a metabolic phenotype necessarily different
from that of differentiated somatic cells and more like that of rapidly proliferating cancer cells …

The aim of this study was to develop a serum-free culture system that could support high
levels of cleavage and blastocyst formation from sheep zygotes developed in vitro. To this …

The first edition of the Textbook of Assisted Reproductive Techniques was published in
2001. As the textbook now enters its sixth edition, some 45 years since the birth of Louise …

Culture of mammalian zygotes individually and in small groups results in lower
developmental rates than culture of large groups. Zona‐free zygotes also have impaired …

Simple media were developed to study the metabolic requirements of bovine embryos up to
Day 7 (Day 0= day of oocyte aspiration) in vitro. Embryos were derived from oocytes …

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 …
