TLDR
Compounds such as ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), NaN(3) and 2,4-dinitrophenol have been shown to increase embryo development and quality of resulting embryos, demonstrating that the process of ATP production is a key regulator of in vitro embryo development.

Differential oxidative stress induction and lethality of rat embryos after maternal exposure to t-butyl hydroperoxide during postimplantation period.

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that critical windows during early gestation may account for the differential susceptibility of developing embryos to pro-oxidants and necessitate a better understanding of this embryonic response to prooxidant exposures.

Rapid cooling of rabbit embryos in a synthetic medium.

TL;DR: To conclude, Cryo3 can replace BSA in rabbit embryo rapid cooling "freezing" and warming media with a chemically defined medium with no animal-derived products: STEM ALPHA.

Improved Bovine Blastocyst Developmental Potential by L-carnitine Supplementation

TL;DR: Overall, the results demonstrated the usefulness of the procedures utilized in the maturation, fertilization and culture of bovine oocytes and early- stage embryos as indicated by a higher total cell count (improved cell activity) in L-carnitine supplementation.

Absorption Spectral Analysis of Zn2+ or Cu2+ Coordination with Human Serum Albumin using Zincon

TL;DR: Using this method, the metals that bind to the multi-binding site of HSA, particularly Zn2+ can be evaluated by colorimetry in an ART laboratory and is potentially applicable for metal detection in HSA in ART clinics and also for quick analysis of the coordination of 64Cu2+ with HSA as a probe chemical in positron emission tomography.

An improved culture medium supports development of random-bred 1-cell mouse embryos in vitro

TL;DR: The in-vitro development of 1-cell embryos beyond the 2-cell stage in response to the removal of glucose and the addition of glutamine to the culture medium suggests that glucose may block some essential metabolic process, and that glutamine may be a preferred energy substrate during early development for these mouse embryos.

Successful culture in vitro of sheep and cattle ova

TL;DR: This communication describes the successful culture of one-cell to eight-cell sheep ova and one- cell and eight- cell cattle ova to the morula and blastocyst stages and reports a high embryo survival after transfer of cultured Ova to recipient animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Culture of preimplantation embryos: facts and artifacts

TL;DR: In this review, comparative information on epigenetic regulation of embryo development is discussed, including information on energy substrate and amino acid preferences of embryos and improvements in the design of culture media are discussed, so that higher yields and increased viability of embryos are achieved.
