Oocyte metabolism predicts the development of cat embryos to blastocyst in vitro

Abstract excerpt

Current methods for detecting complete oocyte maturation and developmental competence are inadequate. The objectives of this study were to (1) examine the relationship between cat oocyte energy metabolism and development in vitro after fertilization and (2) determine if cumulus cell metabolism could be used to predict development of individual oocytes after fertilization in vitro. The hanging drop method was used...
