Figure 5

Blastocyst stage embryos developed from IVM oocytes (5a, b), 13 hrs aged oocytes (5c, d) and from freshly ovulated oocytes after ICSI (5e, f). Some cells within blastocysts in all groups were positive (Apo) to the TUNEL assay indicating apoptotic events. Left panel: bright field. Right field: fluorescence images for DAPI and FITC to detect DNA and positive TUNEL.
