Cryoprotection of human oocytes: inappropriate exposure to DMSO reduces fertilization rates

1 Jan 1991

Abstract excerpt

Human oocytes were exposed to the cryoprotectant dimethyl-sulphoxide (DMSO) at either 4 or 37 degrees C. Subsequent fertilization of these oocytes showed that exposure to DMSO at 37 degrees C was associated with a greatly reduced fertilization rate when compared to untreated control oocytes, whereas no such reduction was seen in oocytes exposed to DMSO at 4 degrees C. The significance of these results for the...
