No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-01-01; The combination of medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) and gonadotropin chorionic (eCG) has been widely used to synchronize oestrus cycle in sheep, but their effects on the gene expression in uterine tissue are yet to be elucidated. To evaluate the effect of MPA + eCG or prostaglandin analogue (PA) treatm...
The objective was to develop an efficient protocol for cryopreservation of agouti (Dasyprocta aguti) ovarian tissue. Agouti ovarian fragments were placed, for 10 min, in a solution containing MEM and fetal bovine serum plus 1.5 M dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol (EG) or propanediol (PROH); some of those fragments were subsequently cryopreserved in a programmable freezer. After exposure and/or thawing,...
The main objective was to compare the efficiency of vitrification techniques and solutions on the preservation of morphology, ultrastructure and viability of sheep preantral follicles enclosed in ovarian tissue fragments. The fragments were cryopreserved by using macrotube vitrification (MTV), solid-surface vitrification (SSV) or conventional vitrification (CV). These techniques were combined with one of the si...
