In vitro maturation of Nelore breed (Bos taurus indicus) oocytes using either purified porcine FSH or recombinant human FSH: results from a large-scale in vitro embryo production r... by Leticia Prates Martins, Luany Alves Galvão Martinhão, Luany Alves Galvão Martinhão, João Gabriel Viana Grazia, Otavio Augusto Costa Faria, Ricardo Alamino Figueiredo, Joao Henrique Moreira Viana, Joao Henrique Moreira Viana

“…IntroductionThis study evaluated whether porcine FSH (pFSH) could be replaced by follitropin-alpha, a recombinant human FSH (rhFSH), during in vitro maturation (IVM) of cumulus-oocyte complexes (COC) recovered from Nelore (Bos taurus indicus) cattle in a large-scale in vitro embryo production (IVP) program.MethodsWe performed three experiments, all using grade I COC (n = 10,208) submitted to IVM in TCM199 without FSH (-FSH, negative control) or supplemented with either 0.5 μg/mL pFSH (Folltropin-V) or 0.1 IU rhFSH (Gonal-F). The remaining procedures, media, and culture conditions for in vitro embryo production (IVP) were similar. …”
