Effects of fetal bovine serum and estrus buffalo serum on maturation of buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) oocytes in vitro

Abstract: Aim:The aim was to assess the effects of fetal bovine serum (FBS) and estrus buffalo serum (EBS) on in vitro maturation rate of oocytes in buffalo.Materials and Methods:Maturation rate of oocytes was assessed in two maturation media supplemented with 20% FBS and EBS. Oocytes maturation rate was evaluated on the basis of cumulus cell expansion and extrusion of polar body after 24 h of in vitro culture in CO2 incubator.Results:The average percentage of in vitro matured oocytes in FBS was 83.80%, and EBS was 77.4… Show more

“…Thus, based on cumulus cells expansion, the in vitro maturation performance of bovine oocytes increased significantly (P< 0.05) in serum basic maturation media than serum free media which might be due to addition of bovine serum. The results recorded in the present experiment were in close agreement with the earlier reports [6,14,15] where they reported better maturation rates of bovine follicular oocytes than serum free medium. On the contrary, ovarian types (type I without CL and type II with CL) did not have any significant effect on in vitro maturation rate based on cumulus cells expansion and nuclear maturation.…”

“…Adding FCS to maturation media enhance oocytes maturation compare with BSA in buffalo (Deneke et al 2013). Similar results were reported in cattle (Sreenivas et al 2014;del Collado et al 2015), This may be due to the abundance of nutrients, growth factors, antioxidants in FCS ( Sreenivas et al 2014;Puri et al 2015). Also, its high content of lipid compared to BSA (del Collado et al 2015).…”

“…Sreenivas et al (2013) achieved better maturation and cleavage when FBS supplemented in IVM and IVF media. Also Puri et al (2015) obtained higher maturation rate for buffalo oocytes in the presence of FBS as compared to Estrus Buffalo Serum (EBS). Similar results were obtained in the present study conducted using crossbred cattle oocytes.…”

“…Gordon (2003) reported that ECS had a significant and marked effect compared with FCS on the developmental competence of bovine oocytes. In contrary, Puri et al (2015) obtained higher maturation rate for buffalo oocytes in the presence of fetal bovine serum (FBS) as compared to estrus buffalo serum (EBS). The objective of the present study was to examine the effect of FCS and mid ECS in culture media on IVM and IVF of oocytes from crossbred cattle under tropical conditions.…”
