Contents Cryopreservation of in vitro‐derived bovine embryos is a crucial step for the
widespread reproduction and conservation of valuable high‐merit animals. Given the …

The expansion of the use of in vitro production techniques has revolutionized the bovine
embryo market. In the last decade, we have seen the number of in vitro produced (IVP) …

The effectiveness of three cryopreservation protocols (slow freezing, short equilibration
vitrification and long equilibration vitrification) on in vitro-derived cattle embryos at expanded …

Vitrification is an alternative to slow-rate freezing for cryopreserving bovine embryos.
However, this technology requires simplification if it is to be used under field conditions. The …

Over the last approximately 17 years freezing procedures have been developed allowing
high survival rates for nonsurgically collected bovine morulae and blastocysts. The vast …

Direct transfer of cryopreserved-thawed embryos reduces time and expense involved in
embryo transfer. We compared 2 glycerol based techniques allowing direct transfer using …

The combined use of reproductive technologies, such as transvaginal ovum-pick up and in
vitro embryo production followed by direct transfer of cryopreserved embryos, has great …

In vitro and in vivo developmental competence of fresh and cryopreserved in vitro produced
(IVP) bovine embryos was evaluated up to birth. Three experiments were done. The …

The aim of this study was to develop an in-straw dilution method suitable for 1-step bovine
embryo transfer of vitrified embryos using the Cryotop vitrification-straw dilution (CVSD) …

In this study, the cryoprotectant ethylene glycol (EG) was tested for its ability to improve and
facilitate the cryopreservation ofin vitroproduced (IVP) bovine embryos. Embryos were …
