One carbon metabolism supplementation in maturation medium but not embryo culture medium improves the yield of blastocysts from bovine oocytes by Arefeh Golestanfar, Amir Niasari Naslaji, Farnoosh Jafarpour, Nima Sadeghi Borujen, Shiva Rouhollahi Varnosfaderani, Yves Menezo, Maurizio Dattilo, Mohammad Hossein Nasr-Esfahani

“…In the first experiment, 2537 bovine oocytes were recovered from slaughterhouse ovaries and then matured either in conventional maturation medium (IVM) or IVM supplemented with OCM substrates (Sup-IVM). After in vitro fertilization, the putative zygotes from each treatment (IVM or Sup-IVM) were cultured in the media either without (IVM/IVC or Sup-IVM/IVC) or with (IVM/Sup-IVC or Sup-IVM/Sup-IVC) OCM supplementation. …”
