Cryopreservation is a technology of commercial application which aims to solve problems associated to surplus In Vivo or In Vitro Produced embryos (IVP) storage, allowing the delay for the convenient moment to transfer to the recipients. However, IVP embryos are known for their low cryopreservation capacity, since they have shown an increased sensitivity to refrigeration when compared to …
Embryos with high amounts of lipids have their impaired development, with increased embryo death and lower survival after cryopreservation. Additionally, the lipid content is associated with lower pregnancy rates and low success cryopreservation of IVP embryos when compared to embryos produced in vivo. A component which is present in both lipid droplets as the membranes is cholesterol, wh…
Per year, more than 800.000 bovine embryos are transferred into recipient cows, one third of that produced in the laboratory, where oocytes are in vitro. Despite these numbers, the rates of IVP blastocyst remain low, around 40% of the initially grown oocytes reach the blastocyst stage, and part of them are compromised in terms of quality and competence. This competence is often assessed b…
