From: Development to the blastocyst stage, the oxidative state, and the quality of early developmental stage of porcine embryos cultured in alteration of glucose concentrations in vitro under different oxygen tensions

Figure 1

Developmental rates to the blastocyst stage of in vitro-produced porcine embryos developed under either 5% or 20% oxygen tensions: comparison of different energy substrate supplements during the first 2 days of IVC. Blastocyst rates are expressed based on the number of examined embryos. Six replicate trials were carried out. Within each end point, bars with different letters (a-c and x-z) are significantly different for 5% and 20% oxygen tension treatments, respectively (P < 0.01). There was no statistical difference within each energy substrate supplement group across oxygen tension treatments, with the exception of the Pyr-Lac groups (P < 0.01). The numbers on the bars represent the number of oocytes fertilized, cultured and analyzed.
