Effects of in vitro maturation media on in vitro fertility of porcine oocytes and early development of embryos

The results showed that penetration and normal fertilization rates in both TCM-199 groups are both higher than that of NCSU-37 group. Moreover, the cleavage and blastocyst rates, and cell numbers of blastocysts which is a criterion for embryo quality were all higher in TCM-199 groups, especially in the group supplemented with pFF. It might be concluded that TCM-199 media supplemented with either pFF or FBS are suitable for effective in vitro maturation of Landrace porcine oocytes collected in Vietnam.
