Supplementing embryonic culture medium with fetal bovine serum (FBS) renders this
medium undefined. Glucose and growth factors present in FBS may affect the results of cell …

Previous studies have shown an accelerating effect of Fetal Calf Serum (FCS) on the timing
of bovine embryo development in modified SOF medium (mSOF)(Van Langendonckt et al …

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 …

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 …

Three experiments investigated the effects of culture systems and renewal of medium
(synthetic oviduct fluid medium (SOFM) supplemented with glutamine and amino acids) …

The effects of fetal calf serum (FCS) or serum fractions on the development of bovine
embryos was investigated. Bovine zygotes were produced in vitro and were cultured in a …

Supplementation of synthetic oviduct fluid (SOF) medium plus amino acids and bovine
serum albumin (BSA) with either fetal calf serum (FCS) or charcoal-treated FCS (CT-FCS) …

Serum-supplemented complex media conditioned by somatic cells have been reported to
support bovine embryo development. The objective of these studies was to determine if …

Bovine oocytes matured and fertilized in vitro were cultured in a chemically defined bovine
embryo culture medium (BECM) or polyvinylalcohol (PVA)-free BECM supplemented with …

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 …
