Effect of in-straw thawing on in vitro- and in vivo-development of vitrified mouse morulae.

Abstract:

:For the purpose of ascertaining parameters to embryo transfer on some domestic animals, mouse morulae were used as a model to investigate the effect of in-straw thawing on in vitro and in vivo-development of vitrified embryos. Embryos were vitrified in 0.25 ml straws preloaded with dilution solution (0.5 M Sucrose) and thawed in the straw by mixing the vitrification solution (Ethylene glycol + Ficoll 70 + Sucrose) and the dilution solution at 25 degrees C. The embryos were randomly divided into six groups and expelled from the straws after they had been suspended in the in-straw mixture for 3 min, 5 min, 8 min, 12 min, 16 min, and 20 min, respectively, and then they were collected under a microscope for in vitro culture or direct transfer. The in vitro developmental rates of the embryos were 92.3% to 98.4% and hatching rates were 64.1% to 75.6% for the groups of 3 min to 16 min, showing no significant differences with those of nonfrozen controls (100%, 76.2%; P > 0.05). While embryos were suspended in the straw for 20 min, the developmental rate (86.6%) and hatching rate (52.4%) were significant lower than those of the control (100%, 76.2%; P < 0.01). When the 168 frozen-thawed embryos (in-straw thawing for 5 min) and 168 fresh embryos were transferred, respectively, the proportion of live fetuses in the pregnant recipients between them (58.7% vs. 54.5%) showed no significant difference (P > 0.05). The data indicate that vitrification with EFS30 and suspension in the in-straw mixture for 3 min to 16 min, when thawing, did not affect the in vitro developmental rate and hatching rate. Moreover, the in vivo developmental rate between vitrified embryos and fresh embryos did not differ significantly. It can be concluded that this method is fit for nonsurgical embryo transfer in some domestic animals with a suggestion that the operation of embryo transfer should be accomplished within 16 min.
