oocytes during in vitro maturation (IVM) and the development of the reconstructed embryos
after injection with membrane intact or disintegrated donor cells. Cumulus-oocyte complexes
(COCs) were collected from abattoir ovaries by follicle (2–8mm) aspiration. In Experiment 1,
COCs were cultured in NCSU-23 medium for 0, 11, 22, 33, and 44h. Oocytes were fixed at
different time points for nuclear and cytoskeletal labeling. Forty-three percent and 75 …
