본 연구는 고품질의 돼지 체외 수정란을 생산하기 위하여 체외 성숙 배지에 첨가하는 polyvinylpyrrolidone(PVP)의 분자량, 첨가 농도 및 시간(실험 1)과 체외 성숙 수정 배양 단계에서 PVP의 첨가(실험 2)가 배 발생과 세포수에 미치는 효과를 검토하였다. 돼지 미성숙 난자의 체외 성숙은 NCSU 23 용액, 체외 수정은 mTBM 용액, 체외 배양은 PZM 3 용액을 이용하였다. 체외 성숙용 배지에서 PVP의 분자량, 농도 및 첨가 시
In this study, we examined the effects of molecular weight, concentrations and treat the duration of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in vitro maturation (IVM) medium (Experiment 1), and the effect of PVP in IVM, in vitro fertilization (IVF) and in vitro culture (IVC) medium on the development and cell number of porcine embryos (Experiment 2). The base mediums were NCSU 23 solution for IVM, mTBM solution for IVF and PZM3 solution for IVC. In experiment 1, the development rates to 2 cell and blastocyst stage were not differ from the different molecular weight (MW), concentration and duration of PVP in IVM medium. However, the hatching rate of blastocyst was significantly higher in the group of MW 40,000, 0.5% and than in the other groups (p<0.05). In experiment 2, the results of IVM, IVF and IVC medium with (W) or without (W/O) 0.5% MW 40,000 PVP are follows. The development rate to 2 cell stage was highest in the group of W-W/O-W (p<0.05). The development rate to blastocyst and hatching rate was higher in the group of W-W/O-W and W-W/O-W/O than that of other treatments (p<0.05).
