Abstract excerpt
We examined possible genotype effects on the survival of 8- to 16-cell mouse embryos isolated from four inbred strains (C57BL/6N, BALB/cAnN, DBA/2N, and C3H/HeN), a outbred stock (ICR), and various crosses after cryopreservation by vitrification or conventional slow freezing using glycerol solutions. The rates of in vitro development of C57BL/6N, BALB/cAnN, C3H/HeN, and ICR embryos to expanded blastocysts ranged...
