Importance of Supplementation during In Vitro Production of Livestock Animals

Increasing infertility is one of the most serious health problems today. Over past few years, we have had opportunity to follow progress technologies focused on production embryos in vitro (i.e., fertilization and intracytoplasmic sperm injection, genetic engineering, or somatic cell nuclear transfer. Oocyte maturation important processes vitro. Despite recent this field, developmental competence generated oocytes significantly lower than vivo. In last a large number studies dealing with improvement conditions for embryo culture been published. These results huge application potential reproduction farm animals as well human medicine. Incorporating various elements, such serum, hormones, growth factors, antioxidants, can affect not only oocyte but also an oocyte/embryo quality. The aim chapter summarize types supplementations media their impact animals.
