본 연구는 체외성숙배 양액에 L-ascorbic acid 와 selenium을 첨가 배양, 돼지 미성숙 난포란의 체외성숙, 체외수정 및 체외배발달에 미치는 영향을 검토코자 수행하였다. 배양액내 L-ascorbic acid를 0. 62.5. 100 그리고 30 $\mu$Ml 첨가 40~44시간동안 배양한 성적은 난핵포 붕괴율이 각각 86.8%, 92.9%, 91.7%, 그리고 92.6%였으며 핵성숙율은 각각 44.7%. 57.1%, 52.8%, 그리고 53.7%로 첨가구에서 유의적으로 높았다 (p<0.05). 체외성숙배양액내 L-ascorbic acid와 selenium을 첨가 배양 후 체외 수정 유기 결과, 웅성전핵 형성율은 유의적으로 높았고 (p<0.05) 다정자 침입율은 유의적으로 낮게 나타났으며 (p<0.05), 체외수정 후 난할율, 상실배와 배반포배 발달율도 첨가구에서 유의적으로 높게 나타났다 (p<0.05). 이러한 결과는 체외성숙 배양액내 L-ascorbic acid와 selenium을 첨가 배양했을 때 돼지 미성숙난포란의 체외 성숙율, 웅성 전핵 형성율 그리고 돼지 체외수정란의 배발달율을 향상 시킬 수 있으리라 사료된다.
This study was conducted to investigate effects of L-ascorbic acid and selenium on maturation, fertilization, and development ablity of porcine follicular oocytes in vitro. When the follicular oocytes were cultured in the media containing 0, 62.5, 100 and 300 $\mu$M of L-ascorbic acid for 40~44h, the percentages of germinal vesicle breakdown were 86.8, 92.9, 91.7 and 92.6% respectively, and the nuclear maturation rates (M II) were 44.7, 57.1, 52.8 and 53.7%. The nuclear maturation rates of treated groups were significantly higher than those of non-treated group (p<0.05). When the follicular oocytes were cultured at 0, 0.4, 0.8, and $1.5\mu$M of selenium for 40~44h, the nuclear maturation rates of treated groups were significantly higher than those of non-treated group (p<0.05). The addition of L-ascorbic acid or selenium to the maturation medium, the incidence of male pronuclear formation was significantly increased (p<0.05) and polyspermy rate was significantly decreased (p<0.05). The addition of L-ascorbic acid or selenium to the maturation medium increased the clevage rate, morula and blastocyst rate (p<0.05). These results suggested that the addition of L-ascorbic acid and selenium to maturation medium increase the nuclear maturation rates, male pronuclear formation and normal embryonic development: in porcine oocytes matured and fertilized in vitro.
