The present study was conducted to verify if the elevation of plasma concentrations of estradiol during superovulatory treatments affects the oocyte transport in buffalo females, as well as if the inferior quality of buffalo oocytes and/or some functional difference on the oviduct of these animals is responsible for the low embryo recovery rate in superovulated uffaloes when compared to cows subjected to the s...
The increase in OPU utilization requires an alternative to start the early phases of PIV without a controlled atmosphere. The development of a practical and simple way to transport/mature/fertilize might enhance the efficiency of the laboratory and consequently decrease its production costs. The aim of this study was to develop a method for cumulus oocytes complexes (CCO) maturation and fertilization in polypro...
