The identification of the elasmobranch secondary ovarian follicles and their function can be challenging and the inconsistent use of terminology derived from other taxa is a matter of ongoing debate. In this study, the ...

Purpose of review This review discusses ovarian reserve tests for ovulation induction and their application in determining fertility capacity, and their current applications to assess risk of natural ovarian failure and ...

Ovarian tissue transplantation could be a valuable technique for the preservation of endangered animals. The domestic cat affords an adequate experimental model for studies aimed at wild felids due to its phylogenetic ...

Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is a promising technique for fertility maintenance. The aim of this study was to compare the morphology of domestic cat ovarian follicles after tissue cryopreservation with ethylene glycol ...

Objective: To develop an efficient technique to preserve primordial follicles from cryopreserved ovarian tissue.Design: Frozen-thawed and fresh preantral follicles were mechanically isolated for viability testing, and their ...

Oxygen concentration has been shown to influence in vitro viability and growth of ovarian follicles. The present study examined the effect of oxygen tension on in vitro development of dog follicles enclosed within the ...

The objective of the present study was to characterize ovarian follicular dynamics and hormone concentrations during follicular deviation in the first wave after ovulation in Nelore (Bos indicus) heifers. Ultrasonographic ...
