“…Vitrification is a technically simple method (Do et al, 2016a;Rios et al, 2010), which does not require the use of a programmable freezer (Hasler, 2014;Sinha, 2009;Vajta and Nagy, 2006). Laboratory experiments have indicated that in vitro-produced bovine embryos cryopreserved by vitrification achieve a better survival rate than do those cryopreserved by slow freezing (Do et al, 2017;Gómez et al, 2008;Mucci et al, 2006;Yu et al, 2010).…”

“…While vitrification appears more favourable than slow freezing, further investigation is required to compare its efficacy with the slow freezing method (Sinha, 2009). Moreover, although limited data on pregnancy rates are available (Gutnisky et al, 2013;Kim et al, 2012;Nedambale et al, 2004), the reported sample sizes were relatively small.…”

The goal of cryopreservation is to retain the original stage of gametes and embryos after they have endured cooling and warming. Slow freezing is a standard method for in vivo-derived bovine embryo cryopreservation, threefifths of such embryos being frozen by this method globally. However, it is evident that slow freezing is not efficient for cryopreserving in vitro-produced bovine embryos. Hence, only one-third of in vitro-produced bovine embryos are cryopreserved. Vitrification is a preferred method for storage of human embryos; consequently, it has been explored as a novel means to store in vitro-produced bovine embryos, for which it shows considerable promise as an alternative to slow freezing. This is due to several reasons: vitrification is often less time-consuming than slow freezing; it does not need expensive slow rate freezing machines; and it has been proven to have comparatively higher survival rates. Yet, in the cattle industry vitrification continues to present shortcomings, such as possible toxicity of vitrification solutions and failure to standardize methods, which pose a challenge for its application to in vitro-produced bovine embryos. Therefore, determining the most suitable procedure is crucial to make vitrification more practical in commercial settings.

The prevalence of male infertility has become a significant clinical concern worldwide, with a noticeable upward trend in recent times. The rates of fertilization and subsequent development of embryos are dependent on many parameters associated with the quality and viability of sperm. Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a promising approach with a great potential for translational applications in the treatment of spermatozoa exhibiting low quality and motility. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of the existing literature, specifically examining the mechanisms of action of PBM has been presented. Our objective was to enhance knowledge in the field of laser light therapy in order to promote the usage of irradiation in clinical settings in a more effective way. Within the realm of reproductive science, the utilization of PBM has been employed to enhance the metabolic processes, motility, and viability of spermatozoa. This is attributed to its advantageous effects on mitochondria, resulting in the activation of the mitochondrial respiratory chain and subsequent synthesis of ATP. This therapeutic approach can be highly advantageous in circumventing the reliance on chemical substances within the culture medium for spermatozoa while also facilitating the viability and motility of spermatozoa, particularly in circumstances involving thawing or samples with significant immotility.
