In porcine in vitro production (IVP) systems, the use of oocytes derived from prepubertal gilts, whilst being commercially attractive, remains challenging due to their poor developmental competence following maturation (IVM). Follicular fluid contains important growth factors and plays a key role during oocyte maturation; therefore, it is common supplementation for IVM medium. However, follicular many poorly characterized components, batch variable, its raises biosecurity concerns. an effort...
The study of pig preimplantation embryo development has several potential uses: from agriculture to the production medically relevant genetically modified organisms and rare breed conservation acting as a physiologically model for progressing human other (e.g., endangered) species’ in vitro fertilisation technology. Despite this, barriers widespread adoption include lipid-laden cells that are hard visualise, slow contemporary technologies such use time-lapse incubators or artificial...
Abstract The quality of porcine oocytes for use in IVF is commonly graded according to the number layers cumulus cells (CCs) surrounding oocyte; together these form oocyte complex (COC). At least three compact CCs regarded as important efficient IVP. To test this, were scored investment, with grade A representing COCs or more including granulosa cell‐cumulus complexes, B those an intact corona radiata surrounded by another layer and grades C D lower CC investment. These then monitored vitro...
