THE FIRST EXPERIENCE OF IN VITRO CATTLE EMBRYO PRODUCTION IN THE SYSTEM OF TRANSVAGINAL OOCYTE ASPIRATION (TOA)
Abstract
The results of the first experience of in vitro cattle embryo production in the system of transvaginal oocyte aspiration (TOA) are represented in this article. It’s established that the method of transvaginal oocyte aspiration allows getting 2,7 oocytes per session and 3,3 oocytes per operation. The output of oosytes per session is 2,0 in general. The output of oocytes at blastocyst stage is 8,9 % of the number of matured cells and 21,4 % of the number of divided embryos.
