232 Effect of Superovulation Pretreatment on Developmental Characteristics of in Vitro-Fertilized Bovine Embryos Transferred to the Oviduct-Uterus Environment
Abstract:Superovulation is a routine procedure to stimulate growth and ovulation of multiple follicles. However, the hormonal changes in the reproductive tract after superovulation treatment affect the environment and subsequently the early embryo development. The aim of the study was to examine the effect of superovulation pretreatment on embryo development and gene expression of IVM/IVF derived embryos subsequently cultured in vivo. The cumulus‐oocyte complexes derived from slaughterhouse ovaries were in vitro mature… Show more
