Laparoscopic ovum pickup (LOPU) is a modern technique that may be used in programs of sheep and goat in vitro embryo production. The effects of repeated recoveries and follicular diameter on the efficiency of LOPU were evaluated in these species. In six Merino donor sheep and five Criolla goats, ovarian stimulation for follicular development was performed by administering a single dose of 60 mg NIH-FSH-P1 (Folltropin®; Bioniche, Canada) and 300 UI of eCG (Novoromon 5000®; Syntex, Argentina). Every four days, a total of 4 LOPU in sheep and 3 in goats were performed 24 h after each ovarian stimulation treatment. The intravaginal sponge with 60 mg of medroxyprogesterone (Esponjas Vaginales Syntex®; Syntex, Argentina) were removed after the last LOPU. Follicular fluid was aspirated under laparoscopic observation according to the follicle diameter with a cannula for intrauterine artificial insemination without a vacuum pump. The number and size of follicles, oocyte quantity and quality and recovery rate were evaluated. A total of 566 follicles were aspirated (14.4 ± 2.4 follicles/sheep and 14.6 ± 7.5 follicles/goat), yielding a total of 263 oocytes (6.8 ± 1.5 oocytes/sheep and 6.6 ± 2.9 oocytes/goat) and a recovery rate of 47% in sheep and 46% in goats (Table 1). In both species, there were no significant differences in the number of aspirated follicles, recovered oocytes, overall recovery rate, and the recovery rate of good quality oocytes in the repeated LOPU. The oocyte recovery rates in sheep differed significantly according to the follicular size (55% in large follicles, 36% in small follicles; P < 0.05), whereas in goats recovery rates of oocytes related to follicular size showed no significant differences (42 and 54% for large and small follicles, respectively). Follicular sizes from which oocytes were obtained was not a determining factor in the recovery rate of good quality oocytes. The technique used would allow effective and repeated oocyte recoveries for in vitro embryo production in sheep and goats. Table 1.

The potential of laparoscopic ovum pick-up (LOPU) followed by in vitro embryo production (IVEP) as a tool for accelerated genetic programs in ruminants is reviewed in this article. In sheep and goats, the LOPU-IVEP platform offers the possibility of producing more offspring from elite females, as the procedure is minimally invasive and can be repeated more times and more frequently in the same animals compared with conventional surgical embryo recovery. On average, ~10 and ~14 viable oocytes are recovered by LOPU from sheep and goats, respectively, which results in 3–5 transferable embryos and >50% pregnancy rate after transfer. LOPU-IVEP has also been applied to prepubertal ruminants of 2–6 months of age, including bovine and buffalo calves. In dairy cattle, the technology has gained momentum in the past few years stemming from the development of genetic marker selection that has allowed predicting the production phenotype of dairy females from shortly after birth. In Holstein calves, we obtained an average of ~22 viable oocytes and ~20% transferable blastocyst rate, followed by >50% pregnancy rate after transfer, declaring the platform ready for commercial application. The present and future of this technology are discussed with a focus on improvements and research needed.

Background: In vitro embryo production in buffaloes has gained much importance in this current scenario due to ever increasing population and high demand of milk and meat. Slaughter house derived bubaline ovaries are a cheap and abundant source of cumulus oocyte complexes.Methods: Oocytes from the buffalo ovarian follicles were recovered by aspiration technique as it facilitates quick recovery. Total 155 ovaries were used in the present study. Surface follicles were measured using vernier calliper and categorized into three groups viz. less than 3 mm, 3-5 mm and greater than 5 mm based on follicular diameter and oocytes were processed for IVM, IVF and IVC using conventional non sorted semen.Result: Overall percentage of small, medium and large follicles in the ovaries were recorded as 16.29 ± 0.94%, 8.14±0.60%, 5.35 ± 0.76%, respectively. Overall recovery rate of COCs was 38%. The percentage of these oocytes were 16.74% (A), 15.25% (B), 25.26% (C), 18.33% (D) and 29.87% (E) respectively. Maturation rate of oocytes were 81.96 ± 2.70%. Fertilization rate was 74.98 ± 3.87%, Cleavage rate % was 40.84±2.51% and Blastocyst percentage was 21.57±1.75% respectively. Application of in vitro embryo production technique using slaughter house ovaries can salvage the genetic potential of bubaline species.

Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of paternal high energy diets on blastocyst development during in vitro embryo production (IVP). Eight sires were stratified by body weight (initial BW = 946 ± 85 kg) and randomly assigned to the same diet (NEm = 2.10, NEg = 1.44, CP = 14.1%, NDF = 16.6%, DM basis) fed at two different inclusion rates while having ad libitum access to bermudagrass hay (NEm = 1.02, NEg = 0.45, CP = 10.2%, NDF = 71.6). After a 10-d adaptation period, sires were individually fed to receive 0.5% (MAINT) or 1.25% [High gain (HG)] of their BW daily for 67 days. At the end of the feeding period, semen was collected through electroejaculation and frozen. Antral follicles were aspirated from ovaries obtained from a slaughterhouse and utilized for IVP in 4 independent replicates (n = 2,227 total oocytes). Cleavage rates were evaluated 48 h after fertilization and blastocyst development rates were evaluated after 7 days of embryo culture. The proposed treatments successfully induced differences in BW gain (P &lt; 0.01; 2.28 vs -0.04 kg/d) and carcass composition (Rump fat: 1.63 vs. 0.41 cm, P = 0.08; Rib fat: 1.06 vs. 0.41 cm, P = 0.02; intramuscular fat: 3.5 vs. 3.0%, P = 0.36; for HG vs. MAINT sires, respectively). There was a significant decrease in cleavage rates (69.9 ± 2.5 vs. 65.0 ± 2.7; P &lt; 0.04), blastocyst rate as a percentage of oocytes (16.7 ± 2.9 vs. 11.5 ± 2.1; P &lt; 0.01), and blastocyst rates as a percentage of cleaved structures (24.1 ± 3.8 vs. 11.5 ± 2.1; P &lt; 0.01) for HG compared with MAINT sires. In conclusion, sires fed diets that induce highly anabolic conditions had impaired blastocyst development compared to sires fed a maintenance diet.
