Effects of L-carnitine and different cryodevices on the vitrification and developmental competence of invitro fertilized buffalo oocytes
JOURNAL OF THE HELLENIC VETERINARY MEDICAL SOCIETY(2022)
摘要
The cryopreservation of immature oocytes from buffalo provides a continuous non-seasonal source of female gametes. The current study compared different cryodevices and L-carnitine (LC) supplementation to the vitrifi-cation medium on the viability and developmental competenceofbuffalo oocytes. The immature oocytes were vitrified in TCM119 medium supplemented with 0.0, 0.3, 0.6 or 1.2 mg/ml of LC in either a straw (SD), open pulled-straw (OPS), or solid surface device (SSD). Vitrification in a straw resulted in higher rates of recovery (52.7 %)and viability (85.5 %) of oocytes in medium containing 0.6 mg/ml LC (P<0.05). Use of OPS resulted in greater recovery (50.2 %) and viability rates (79.7%)in medium containing 0.3 mg/mlLC (P<0.05). There were greater recovery (54.1%) and viability (83.3%)rates for medium containing 0.6 mg/ml LC and SSD (P<0.05).Abnormalities of the cytoplasm (all cryodevices) and zona pellucida (SD) were higher when medium contained 1.2 mg/ml LC (P<0.05) was used.Further-more, the maturation rates of oocytes were the greatest when using OPS and 0.3 mg LC (46.9 %, P<0.05). The rates of fertilization (60.5%), cleavage (27.9 %)and development of fertilized oocytes to blastocysts (16.3 %)were the greatest when using OPSand vitrification medium with 0.3 mg LC (P<0.05). In conclusion,the proper LC concentration differs at different cryodevices.The rates of recovery and viability were the greatest for medium with 0.6 mg/ml LC in either SD or SSD. However, when using OPS the best results were recorded when the medium contained 0.3 mg/ml LC.
