Morphological embryo classification is of great importance for many laboratory techniques, from basic research to the ones applied to assisted reproductive technology. However, the standard classification method for both ...

Total number of cells in cloned embryos is generally lower than that of in vivoderived embryos and in bovines cell allocation at the blastocyst stage, has been observed to be affected in a large proportion of cloned embryos. ...

Heat stress is an important cause of poor development and low survival rates in bovine embryos. Experiments were conducted to test the hypothesis that Bos indicus embryos are more resistant to heat stress than are Bos ...

The low efficiency of interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) makes it necessary to investigate new strategies to improve embryonic developmental competence. Embryo aggregation has been successfully applied to ...

This study evaluated the factors affecting non-surgical embryo transfer (NSET) efficiency in goats. Donor goats (n = 10) were superovulated, mated and embryos were collected by non-surgical embryo recovery 7 d after estrous ...
