In order to improve the cryopreservation by vitrification or slow freezing of nuclear transplant rabbit embryos, the effects of factors affecting embryo cryopreservation such as cryoprotectants, equilibration, cooling rate and post-thaw dilution on post-thaw survial and development were determined using intact embryos of morular stage. And the post-thaw development of nuclear transplanted embryos cryopreserved under the optimal conditions examined was compared between vitrification and slow freezing. The cryoprotectant solution used was ethyleneglycol-ficoll-sucrose (EFS) or ethyleneglycol-poly-vinylpyrrolidone-galactose- I (EPG- I ) for vitrification, and EPG- II for slow freezing. To examine the viability of frozen-thawed embryos, the nuclear transplanted embryos were co-cultured in TCM-199 plus 10% FBS with bovine oviduct epithelial cells(BOEC) for 24 hrs and the intact morulae were co-cultured with BOEC for 5 days and 3 days to hatching blastocyst stage in 39 ˚C 5% incubator. The results obtained were as follows: Following vitrification with EFS, the post-thaw development of rabbit morulae to hatching blastocyst was significantly(P<0.05) higher in compacted stage(82.4%) than in early morular stage(60.0%). The post-thaw development of compacted morulae to hatching blastocyst was similarly high in vitrification with EFS(82.4%), EPG- I (85.0%) and in slow freezing with EPG- II (83.3%). Following vitrification with EPG- I, the post-thaw development of intact rabbit morulae to hatching blastocyst was similar as 78.0% and 85.0% in 1-step and 2-step post-thaw dilution, respectively. The post-thaw development of nuclear transplanted rabbit embryos of compacted morulae stage to hatching blastocyst was similarly 43.6% and 40.0% in vitrification with EPG- Iand slow freezing with EPG- II, respectively. These results indicated that the rabbit nuclear transplant and intact embryos of morulae stage could be well cryopreserved with either vitrification or slow freezing procedure.

This study was to determine the effect of ionomycin and 6-dimethylaminopurine (6-DMAP) and/or elcetrical stimulation on the oocyte activation and production of rabbit nuclear transplant embryos. The oocytes were collected from the oviduct of superovulated rabbits at 14 h post hCG injection and cultured in TCM-199 containing 10% FBS until 19 h post hCG injection. To determine the optimum concentration and exposure time of 6-DMAP, some oocytes were activated with 5 M ionomycin for 5 min and then in 2.0 mM 6-DMAP for 0.5 to 3.0 h, or in 1.0 to 3.0 mM 6-DMAP for 2.0 h. Other control oocytes were stimulated electrically(3X, 1.25 kV/cm, 60 sec) in 0.3 M mannitol solution supplemented with 100 M CaCl and MgCl. The nuclear donor embryos of 8-cell stage were synchronized to G phase of 16-cell stage, and the recipient cytoplasms were obtained from removal of the first polar body and a portion of membrane bound cytoplasm of the oocytes collected at 15 h post hCG injection. A separated blastomere was injected into the perivitelline space of the enucleated oocytes. The oocytes injected with nucleus were cultured until 19 h post hCG and then electrofused and activated by electrical stimulation with or without ionomycin and 6-DMAP. These nuclear transplant embryos were cultured in TCM-199 containing 10% FBS in 39˚C, 5% CO2 incubator for 120 h. For the oncytes activated parthenogenetically with electrical stimulation with or with-out ionomycin and the various concentration of exposure time of 6-DMAP, the highest cleavage(92.3%) and development to blastocyst stage(41.0%) were resulted from the oocytes activated by ionomycin and 2.0 mM 6-DMAP for 2.0 h, which were found to be significantly(P<0.05) higher than the cleavage(45.2%) and developement to blastocyst stage(14.3%) from the oocytes activated with electrical stimulation. The significantly(P<0.05) more oocytes(71.4%) developed to 4 cell stage at 24 h post activation by ionomycin and 6-DMAP than those by electrical stimulation(18.9%). For the nuclear transplant embryos, the cleavage rate was similarly high in oocyte activation by electrical stimulation with(79.4%) or without ionomycin and 6-DMAP(70.5%). However, the embryo development to blastocyst stage was significantly(P<0.05) higher in oocyte activation by electrical stimulation with ionomycin and 6-DMAP(44.4%) than by electrical stimulation only(25.0%). The significantly(P<0.05) more nuclear transplant embryos(45.6%) developed to 4 cell stage at 18 h post activation by electrical stimulation with ionomycin and 6-DMAP than those by electrical stimulation only(10.6%). These results indicated that the supplemental oocyte activation by ionomycin and 6-DMAP with electrical stimulation enhanced and accelerated the preimplanted in vitro development of the rabbit nuclear transplant embryos.

From September 1993 to August 1997, we treated ovarian disorders in 1,782 repeat breeder cows after diagnosis by ultrasound on 35 farms in Kyeong-ki do. The rates of ovarian appearance were 59.8% of CL group, 16.7% of ovarian atrophy or hypofunction, 15.4% of luteal cyst, 4.3% of follicular cyst and 3.7% of follicle group in diagnosis with rectal palpation and ultrasound. The results of treatment for ovarian disorders were 1,316 cows(73.8%) in estrus, 348 cows(19.5%) in non-detected and 118 cows(6.6%) in unidentified. The rates of PGF, GnRH and mineral vitamin complex treatment to estrus were 79.6, 69.2 and 50.3%. Two groups were treated with 5 ml PGF intramuscular injection(I.M.) and 1.5 ml PGF intraovarian injection(I.O.), and the results of 1.5ml PGF I.0. were significantly higher than that of 5ml PGF I.M. in inductiom estrus(p<0.05). The pregnant rates were 29.8% in total repeat breeder cows with ovarian disorders following diagnosis and treatment. In summary, rectal palpation and ultrasonography were proven to be useful tools of diagnosis and treatment in ovarian disorders, and it was also suggested that the response to treatment with PGF I.0. was better than PGF I.M.

This study was conducted to investigate the survival and hatching rates after refrozen-thawed bovine IVF blastocysts. The survival rates after refrozen-thawed bovine IVF blastocysts produced on day 7, day 8 and day 9, were 66.6%(16/24), 62.5%(15/24) and 65.3%(17/26), respectively. The survival and hatching rates after the first frozen-thawed bovine JVF blastocysts were 90.0%(27 /30) and 70.0%(21 /30), but in refrozen-thawed bovine IVF blastocysts were 66.2%(49 /74) and 45.9%(34 /74), respectively. The results of this study were suggest that refrozen-thawed bovine IVF embryos had survival ability.

The embryogenesis stimulating activity(ESA) had been shown in co-culture of embryos with bovine oviduct epithelial cell(BOEC) and culture in BOEG-conditioned medium. The present study was undertaken to purify and quantify the embryotropic proteins and to determine the optimum concentration of the embryotropic protein for the proper development of embryos. In BOEC-conditioned medium, five major bands of proteins were detected(66, 53, 40, 32 and 24 kDa) by SDS-PAGE. From these proteins, 288pg of protein that had a 32kDa molecular weight was purified by gel filtration column and perfusion chromatography ion-exchange column. When purified protein was supplemented to the in vitro culture media at various concentrations in protein-free media, 2.5g /ml supplement group showed significantly higher rates of embryo development into morula /blastocyst stages than other groups(p<0.05). In conclusion, we purified 32kDa protein from BOEC-conditioned medium and this protein showed optimum embryogenesis stimulating effect at 2.5g /ml.

This study was carried out to establish an effective system for embryo transfer techniques by analyzing several factors affecting in-vivo embryo transfer in Korean cattle. Embryos produced in-vivo were transferred into a total of 301 recipients. The results obtained in studies on the factors affecting pregnancy rate after embryo transfer by condition of embryos were as follow ; 1. The pregnancy rate of 301 recipients was 45.2% and higher with fresh embryos than with frozen embryos(63.5% : 21.4%, P<0.01). Embryos superovurated by FSH-P had slightly greater than by SUPER-OV in pragnancy rate, athough these were no difference between two treatments. 2. The pregnancy rates of transferred morulae and blastocysts showed no difference between fresh and frozen embryos(63.5% : 63~6% ; 20.0% : 25.8%). However, the pregnancy rates by quality of flesh and frozen embryos were significantly different(P<0~05). The pregnancy rates were outstandingly high in the grade A, B of fresh embryos(59.0~66.4%), and in the grade A of frozen embryos(43.6%). 3. The number of transferred embryos showed no difference in pregnancy rate, but when frozen embryos transferred, the pregnancy rate was slightly higher with two embryos than that with one embryo.

This study was carried out to establish an effective system for embryo transfer techniques by analyzing several factors affecting in-vivo embryo transfer in Korean cattle. Embryos produced in-vivo were transferred into a total of 301 recipients The results obtained in studies on the factors affacting pregnancy rate after embryo transfer by condition of recipients were as follows ; 1. The pregnancy rate by age and parity of recipients showed high in 5~8 and over 12 years old(72.7~73.9%), and 3rd~4th parity(82.1%) for fresh embryos(P<0.05). The pregnancy rate did not differ by age and parity of recipients in frozen embryos. The pregnancy rate of frozen embryos tended to be similar to that of fresh embryos(38.5% and 25.0~36.7%). 2. The number of observation for normal estrus cycles of recipients did not differ In pregnancy rate between one and 2 times in fresh embryos(64.9%, 69.8%). The pregnancy rate by transferred frozen embryos showed significantly higher after 2 times of observation(P<0.05, 16.3%, 37.5%). The pregnancy rate by days open did not differ between fresh and frozen embryos. But the pregnancy rate was slightly higher in 12 months and 6 months of days open for fresh and frozen embryos, respectively(70.1~71.1% and 24.5%, respectively). 3. The pregnancy rate of transferred fresh and frozen embryos into right and left side of uterine horn did not differ(62.1% : 65.9% 25.0% : 24.3%, respectively). The pregnancy rate by the grade of CL was not different in fresh embryos, but the pregnancy rate was significantly higher in the grade A than B for frozen embryos(P<0.01, 43.2%, 16.2%).

This study was carried out to establish an effective system for embryo transfer techniques by analyzing several factors affecting in-vivo embryo transfer in Korean cattle Embryos were transferred into a toral of 301 recipients. The results obtained in studies on the factors affecting pregnancy rate after embryo transfer by condition of transfer time were as follows ; 1. The pregnancy rate by the seasons of transferred fresh and frozen embryos were not different, but the pregnancy rate was slightly higher in summer(80.8%). 2. The pregnancy rate by the days of embryo transfer after estrus were not different when fresh embryos were transferred, but the pregnancy rate was highest at 8 days when frozen embryos were transferred(P<0.01, 40.0%). 3. The pregnancy rate at estrus synchronization was remarkably higher with PGF treated than natural (P<0.05, 70.4%, 43.4%). 4. The pragnancy rate by the degree of estrus synchronization was best when the estrus was synchronized in both fresh and frozen embryos (83.3% and 29.7%, respectively), but the pregnancy rate was not different among 2 days. But the pregnancy rate of frozen embryos were slightly higher when the recipients exhibited estrus earlier than donors.

A combined technology of transvaginal ovum pick-up(OPU) system with in vitro-oocyte manipulation technique can be used for improving reproductive efficiency in the cattle. The objective of this study was to establish a newly-conceived breeding program using OPU in the pregnant cows. The OPU trial was performed in pregnant cows every 10 days from 40 through 90 days of artificial insemination (Al), and number of follicles in ovary, number of retrieved oocytes and embryo development following in vitro-fertilization, were evaluated. Reduced number of follicles in the ovaries of pregnant cows was firstly detected from 70 days after A' and a significant (P<0.05) decrease in the follicle number (5.4 follicles /donor) was found at 90 days than at 40, 50, 60 and 80 days after Al (8.0~9.2). A similar pattern was also observed in the number of oocytes retrieved by OPU apparatus during experimental period. When retrieved oocytes were matured and inseminated in vitro with frozen bull semen, development of the oocytes to the blastocyst stage was not significantly affected by the retrieval time. Four embryos (morula or blastocyst stage) derived from oocytes retrieved from pregnant cows were nonsurgically transferred to four recipient cows on day 7 of estrus cycle. For the first time in Korea, three of four transferred embryos developed to live calves with normal physiological parameters. In conclusion, an effective breeding program employing pregnant cow can be developed by use of OPU trial and in vitro culture techniques of oocytes ; OPU system could be repeated in pregnant cows with no risk of abortion and viable offsprings were borne after transfer to the recipients.
