Abstract: |
This study aimed to compare the efficiency of three cryodevices (Conventional Straws (CS), Hemi-Straws (HS) and spatula (SP)) in vitrification of buffalo oocytes. Oocytes were recovered from ovaries of slaughtered buffaloes. They were vitrified and thawed according to each cryodevice used. Then they were in vitro matured, fertilized and cultured to blastocyst stage. Survival and quality, in vitro maturation, fertilization rate and blastocyst production rates of vitrified immature buffalo oocytes were assessed. Results showed that total survival rate of the vitrified oocytes was higher (p |
