The beneficial effect of antioxidant supplementation in maturation culture media of sow
oocytes was evaluated by the expression quantification of apoptotic genes and the genes …

Contents The aim of this study was to assess the effects of different antioxidants on the
levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and glutathione (GSH) in oocytes during in vitro …

The oocyte maturation process requires a high supply of energy, which generates reactive
oxygen species (ROS), adversely affecting oocyte and embryo development. Balancing …

The present study assessed the effects of supplementation of different antioxidants on
oocyte maturation, embryo production, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and …

Antioxidants may be beneficial additives to synthetic culture media because these well
defined media lack serum or other macromolecules that serve as reactive oxygen species …

Ascorbate is an important water-soluble antioxidant. Oxidative stress during in vitro gamete
and embryo culture leads to defective development of gametes and embryos. In this context …

As defense against oxidative stress, living systems employ antioxidants that they either
produce or take up from the environment. Among these α-tocopherol and ascorbic acid are …
