Studies on the In Chamber Fertilization in Cattle and Rabbit

소 및 가토에 있어서 Chember내 수정에 관한 연구

Hydrogel chambers made from polymerized 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate were used for in chamber fertilization. To determine whether sperm motility was preserved in the Hydrogel chamber, chambers which have rabbit sperm or frozen-thawed bovine sperm were transplanted inside of mouse peritoneal cavity and sperm were observed after recovering the chambers in the due time. As a result, it was determined that preservation of sperm motility was good. To determine whether in chamber fertilization was possible, chambers which have rabbit oocytes and sperm were transplanted inside of mouse peritoneal cavity and eggs were observed after recovering the chambers at 84 hr of preservation. As a result, the fact that fertilization and culture was occurred inside of the chamber was determined.
