High impact information on Embryo Culture Techniques

The present study used the whole embryo culture technique to determine the effects of the ketone body, B-hydroxybutyrate (B-OHB), on organogenesis in mouse embryos [1].
Our findings confirm a high pregnancy wastage rate in subfertile women and highlight deficiencies in the sperm separation, gamete handling and IVF/embryo culture techniques [2].
The lindane embryotoxicity and associated changes in cysteine (CYS) and glutathione (GSH) status have been investigated in the early organogenesis-stage rat conceptus utilizing whole embryo culture techniques [3].
Embryotoxic effects of two inorganic arsenic compounds, sodium arsenite (Asi) and sodium arsenate (Asa), on the development of mouse embryos during early organogenesis were studied using the whole embryo culture technique [4].
Teratogenic effects of the anticonvulsant drugs valproic acid (VPA) and diphenylhydantoin (DPH) on the development of mouse embryos during early organogenesis were studied using the whole embryo culture technique [5].

Biological context of Embryo Culture Techniques

Therefore, the rates of glucose metabolism by glycolysis, citric acid cycle, oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), and anabolic utilization were evaluated in mouse embryos and extraembryonic membranes using the whole embryo culture technique [6].
