PIF detection in single cultured bovine IVF embryos medium. PIF levels increase in viable embryos. Cleaving embryos were cultured from day 3 to day 7 reaching up to the blastocyst stage. PIF levels Mean+/- SEM in the medium were significantly higher compared with levels in non-cleaving embryos (ANOVA followed by student t-test): Control (medium alone, or medium of non-cleaving embryos (n = 15) vs. day 3 P = 0.01, Control vs. day 7, P = 0.005, Day 3 vs. day 7, P = 0.03).
