Assisted hatching of poor-quality bovine embryos increases pregnancy success rate after embryo transfer.
Embryos of good, fair and poor quality were collected from superovulated cows and subjected to zona cutting (ZC) treatment using a needle under either an inverted microscope or a stereomicroscope. One (single transfer) or 2 (twin transfer) embryos with or without prior ZC treatment were transferred nonsurgically to recipients. Without the ZC treatment, lower embryonic quality resulted in lower ...

The Use of Laser-Assisted Hatching in Bovine in Vitro Produced Embryos to Improve Pregnancy Rate. (August 2008) Suzanne Lynn Menges, B.S., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Duane Kraemer In vitro produced (IVP) embryos not hatching from the zona pellucida (ZP) after transfer is one possible contributing factor of a lower pregnancy rate when compared to in vivo embryos. This ...
متن کاملBovine pretransfer endometrium and embryo transcriptome fingerprints as predictors of pregnancy success after embryo transfer.
Aberrant gene expression in the uterine endometrium and embryo has been the major causes of pregnancy failure in cattle. However, selecting cows having adequate endometrial receptivity and embryos of better developmental competence based on the gene expression pattern has been a greater challenge. To investigate whether pretransfer endometrial and embryo gene expression pattern has a direct rel...
متن کاملThe Effect of Intercourse around Embryo Transfer on Pregnancy Rate in Assisted Reproductive Technology Cycles
Background Implantation failure is the most important cause of recurrent in vitro fertilization/intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) failure. Several reports suggest that intercourse during the peritransfer period might improve pregnancy rates. This study is designed to determine whether intercourse during the peritransfer period will improve pregnancy and implantation rates in patients...
متن کاملAssisted Hatching for In Vitro Fertilization-Embryo Transfer: An Update
Assisted Hatching (AH) is a technique performed after In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) and involves the artificial thinning or opening of the Zona Pellucida (ZP) prior to Embryo Transfer (ET) as an attempt to improve the probability of embryo implantation. AH can be performed by embryologists via mechanical, chemical, or laser-assisted means. A few studies suggest that a larger size of ZP opening/t...
