The spermatozoa and oocytes of an F1 generation (Balb C x C57) were fertilized in Ham's F10 and TCM-199 in semen straws and in micro-drops in petri dishes. The embryos were cultured in TCM-199 and Ham's F10 in semen straws and micro-drops in petri dishes. The semen straws were incubated in a bi-gas incubator and goat vagina. The blastocyst-stage embryos were stained using Hoechst 33528 solution and blastomeres count. The results were analyzed by 2 X 3 factorial design and the student t-test was used to separate the mean and they showed that there was no statistica! difference (p > 0.05) between the media, receptacles and incubators. The overall fertilization rate was 94 % to 99 %. The semen straw with Ham's F10 incubated in the bi-gas incubator had the highest rate (80.5 %), reaching the blastocyst-stage of the embryos. The lowest rate of murine embryos reaching the blastocyst-stage were these cultured in semen straws incubated in the gaat vagina, with its highest rate of 60 %. The embryos blocking at the 8 - cell and morula stage recorded the lowest rate on bath culture media and incubation methods, compared to the ether embryo developmental stages. The overall mean number of blastomeres in the blastocyst-stage of the embryos ranged trom 85±9 - 90±9 cells in all receptacles and incubators. lt was concluded that the fertilization and culturing of murine embryos are possible in French semen straws incubated in a bi-gas incubator and in the gaat vagina as an alternative method of fertilizing oocytes and culturing murine embryos in addition TCM-199 and Ham's F10 can bath be used to fertilize oocytes and culture murine embryos until blastocyst formation embryo in vitro, incubated in a bi - gas incubator or in the vagina. 1 online resource (xii, 44 leaves): color illustrations) en PDF University of Venda In vitro fertilization Semen straw TCM-199 Ham's F10 Bi-gas incubator goat vagina UCTD 636.08245 Artificial insemination Animal breeding Reproductive technology Effect of different culture media and incubation methods on culturing murine embryos in vitro using a semen straw as an alternative receptacle Dissertation open.access
