Effects of oocyte collection techniques and maturation media on in vitro maturation and subsequent embryo development in Boer goat [PDF]
The oocytes (experiment 1) were harvested by one of the four collection techniques (slicing, puncture, aspiration I and aspiration II) and the total number and the number of each grade of oocytes were counted, respectively. The good-quality oocytes (good

Bovine in vitro oocyte maturation and embryo culture in liquid marbles 3D culture system.
Despite the advances in in vitro embryo production (IVP) over the years, the technique still has limitations that need to be overcome. In cell cultures, it is already well established that three-dimensional culture techniques are more physiological and ...

In vitro maturation (IVM) of camel oocytes using different maturation media [PDF]
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the in vitro maturation rate of camel oocytes using different maturation media. Ovaries of 25 she-camel were collected during the breeding season (from December to April). Ovaries were transferred to the lab in

The effect of vitrification after warming on the expressions of p38, CDK1, and cyclin B in immature goat oocytes followed by in vitro maturation [PDF]
Background and Aim: The combination of vitrification techniques and in vitro maturation can reduce oocyte competence. Mitogen-activated protein kinase and maturation-promoting factor are significant in oocyte meiotic maturation regulation.

Effect of adding growth factors during in vitro maturation on the developmental potentials of ewe oocytes selected by brilliant cresyl blue staining [PDF]
Aim: Several factors had been concerned with the developmental competence of the sheep oocyte. This study aims to investigate the effect of adding growth factors (insulin-like growth factor 1 [IGF-1] and epidermal growth factor [EGF]) in the maturation ...

A novel technique for in vitro maturation of sheep oocytes in a liquid marble microbioreactor [PDF]
The aim of this work was to develop a microbioreactor using liquid marble (LM) as a novel system for oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM) in small volumes.Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) obtained from slaughterhouse sheep ovaries were in vitro matured in a LM system prepared by placing a drop (30 μl containing 10 COCs) suspended in TCM 199 supplemented ...

In Vitro Maturation and Fertilization of Immature Oocytes: A Comparative Study of Fertilization Techniques [PDF]
Our purpose was to investigate the factors influencing maturation and fertilization of immature oocytes.Immature oocytes were obtained from women undergoing cesarean section. They were cultured in the maturation medium either with or without cumulus cells.
