Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAugmentation of Temperatures, Media and Cryoprotectants on in vitro Fertilization of Pig OocytesTumelo Thelma Maduwa, Masindi Lottus Mphaphathi et al.There are numerous challenges to the large-scale production of pig embryos using in vitro procedures. The aim of the present study was to compare the different holding temperatures, in vitro maturation media, and permeating cryoprotectants in the in vitro fertilization of pig oocytes. Ovaries were obtained from the local slaughterhouse, oocytes were retrieved by means of aspiration and slicing techniques … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 29 Aug 2024 · 4,650 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Temperature Change and Estradiol Levels on Cattle Oocytes Developmental Competency: Comparing X-Sexed and Non-Sexed Sperm Following in vitro FertilizationMaleke Dimpho Sebopela, Masindi Lottus Mphaphathi et al.The study aimed to investigate the effects of temperature change and estradiol (E2) hormone level on In Vitro Maturation (IVM) and fertilization of cattle oocytes using X-sexed and non-sexed sperm. In experiment 1: The oocytes were incubated at various temperatures of 35.5, 36.5, 37.5, 38.5, 39.5 and 40.5°C under similar conditions with 5% CO2, in humidified air for 22 h. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 16 Nov 2023 · 5,319 accessesView PDFCite
