the development of culture media able to mimic the preovulatory stage of follicular environment and support nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation of oocyte is important for in-vitro fertilization (ivf) programs. it seems that the best culture media for embryonic development and cell cleavage is the natural composition which surrounds the oocyte which has been used occasionally in human ivf program...

Pyricularia oryzae (Tel. Magnaporthegrisea) is currently used as a fungal model for plantmicrobeinteraction studies as well as an indicative model for anticancer drug discovery. Thepresent study introduces the optimal condition in which P. oryzae grows and sporulates beston common culture media. We have considered three fungal culture media, i.e. PDA, PCA andWA, based on which P. oryzae sporula...

most of the systematic studies used in the development of human embryo culture media have been done first on mouse embryos. the general use of nmri outbred mice is a model for toxicology, teratology and pharmacology. nmri mouse embryo exhibit the two-cell block in vitro. the objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the effects of four kinds of culture media on the development of zygo...

norfolk island pine (araucaria excelsa) is belonging to araucariaceae family and is native to norfolk island in australia. this plant is a woody ornamental plant of high commercial value. since it is propagated by seed, achieving a regeneration system is one of the most important goals in this woody plant tissue culture. to evaluate the effect of cytokinins and culture media for bud induction d...
