Bovine Oocyte In Vitro Maturation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Bovine ovaries were collected from the slaughterhouse and transported to the laboratory within 2 h at 30–35 °C. Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were collected from 2–8 mm follicles by aspiration with an 18-gauge needle. COCs were washed and those with at least 3 layers of cumulus cells were chosen for the experiment. The IVM medium contained TCM199 (Gibco, Life Technology, Carlsbad, CA, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Hyclone; Gibco, Life Technology, Carlsbad, CA, USA), 1 µg/mL estradiol, 40 ng/mL insulin-like growth factor (IGF, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), 10 µg/mL follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), 50 ng/mL epidermal growth factor (EGF, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) and 10 µg/mL lutrinizing hormone (LH, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA).

Culturing Confluent Perichondrial Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The confluent perichondrial cells were dissociated into single cells with 0.25%
trypsin. Next, 50,000 cells were seeded in a 100 mm dish containing Dulbecco’s
Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM)/F12 Ham (1:1) (Sigma-Aldrich), stabilized
antibiotic–antimycotic solution (100×) (Sigma-Aldrich), 0.2 mM ascorbic acid
2-phosphate (AA2P) (Sigma-Aldrich), 10−7 M dexamethasone
(Sigma-Aldrich), 1× ITS-X (Gibco), 5 ng/mL insulin-like growth factor (IGF)
(Sigma-Aldrich), 10 ng/mL basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF) (Wako), 10 ng/mL
platelet-derived growth factor BB (PDGF-BB) (Peprotech), and 2% FBS. The medium
was changed every other day until the cells became confluent, which occurred
between 7 and 10 days of culture (passage 1 cells).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
