Título: | Differences on post-thawing survival between ovine morulae and blastocysts cryopreserved with ethylene glycol or glycerol |
Autor: | Cocero Oviedo, María Jesús; López Sebastián, Antonio; Barragán, M. L.; Picazo, R. A. | Fecha de publicación: | 1996 | Editor: | Elsevier | Citación: | Cryobiology 33(5): 502-507 (1996) | Resumen: | Embryos were collected on Days 5 and 6 after breeding to investigate the effectiveness of ethylene glycol (ETG) and glycerol (GLY) as cryoprotectants of sheep morulae and blastocysts and to determine their optimum stage of development for cryopreservation. Only excellent (grade 1) and good (grade 2) embryos (196 morulae and 188 blastocysts) were incubated in increasing concentrations of GLY or ETG and submitted to a slow-freezing and quick-thawing procedure. Both cryoprotectants were removed using 0.25 M sucrose solution, and then embryos were cultured or transferred to determine their viability. Freezing medium containing ETG yielded higher in vitro survival rates (P < 0.01) than medium containing GLY (64.6% vs 16.0%); the difference between cryoprotectants was greater when morulae were used (57.9% vs 4.2%, P < 0.005) as compared with blastocysts (70.4% vs 21.5%, P < 0.05). There was a strong interaction between type of cryoprotectant and embryo stage (P < 0.005). After transfer of morphologically viable embryos, the in vivo development rate of embryos frozen with ETG was also higher than that of embryos frozen with GLY (45.5% vs 27.7%, P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the number of lambs born among procedures and embryo stage, though the lowest lambing rate was obtained with morulae frozen with GLY (21.4%). Similar lambing rates were produced when blastocysts were frozen with either GLY or ETG (36.6% vs 43.0%). The best embryo survival after thawing was observed when blastocysts were frozen with ETG as cryoprotectant. © 1996 Academic Press, Inc. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/295184 | DOI: | 10.1006/cryo.1996.0053 | ISSN: | 0011-2240 |
