  • This study was carried out to investigate the effect of biological factors on the in vitro production(IVP) of bovine oocytes for development of simple culture methods and medium. Oocytes from the slaughterhouse ovaries were matured and fertilized using general protocol and this study was examined if there were necessary to co-culture, media change, media type and embryo density. This results were as follows: 1. The development rate according to co-culture with cumulus cells and non co-culture as drop culture was not significantly different in cleavage (68.9 vs 71.7%), 8-cell stage (41.2 vs 44.1%) and blastocyst stage (12.2 vs 13.8%), respectively (p<0.05) 2. The blastocyst development rates in YS and CRIaa were higher than that in TCM199 (12.4, 10.4$ vs 3.7%), but the cleavage (69.0, 77.8 and 61.0%) and 8-cell stage (31.7, 37.0 and 35.7%) development accoring to YS, TCM199 and CRIaa ws not significantly different, respectively (p<0.05). 3. There was no significantly different in cleavage (62.6, 59.5 and 61.2%), 8-cell(34.7, 37.9 and 34.0%) and blastocyst (9.5, 11.6 and 12.8%) development among medium change time as control, Group I and Group II, respectively (p<0.05). 4. Blastocyst formation of 8-cell stage according to embryo density was not significantly different in 1, 10 and 25 embryos (27.3, 22.5 and 34.0%), respectively (p<0.05). These results indicated that simple culture system could reduce bovine IVP embryos as drop culture as non co-culture system, high density embryo (25 embryos/50 $\mu$1 drop). YS defined medium and no medium change for whole culture period, although other biological factors need to examine in order to produce efficient IVP bovine embryos.

  • To improve the efficiency of in vitro production of embryos with follicular oocytes in pig, the recovery rates, in vitro fertilization and development. The results obtained were as fellows: The number of oocytes recovered 37 ovary was 1,365 by aspiration, 1,884 by slicing and 3,830 aspiration post slicing, per ovary was averaged 103.5 aspiration post slicing than 30.7 by aspiration and 50.8 by slicing (P<0.05). The percentage of grade I and II oocytes recovered was 0.05∼0.2% and 1.7∼2.3% respectively(p<0.05). The fertilization rates of ejaculate and epididymis sperm was 83.0 and 83.1%. And cleavaged rate was 60.8 and 69.0% respectively(P<0.05). However, there were no significant differences between sperm sources. The clevage rates of fertilized oocyte was significantly(P<0.05) higher as B.O(92.8%) than TALP (90.1%) or mTBM (80.1%). And in vitro developed to blastocyst rates of mTBM media used for fertilization was significantly (P<0.05) higher as 12.4%, compared with the results using the media of TALP(1.6%) or B.O (0.0%). The embryos developed 2-cell stage after in vitro fertilization were co-cultured with or without POEC and BOEC in NCSU-23 and TCM-199 media. In vitro developed to blastocyst rates was NCSU-23 with POEC(2.3%) or BOEC(1.2%), but in vitro cultured in TCM-199 medium with POEC or BOEC was not developed to blastocyst. The percentage of embryos that developed to morula stage in 0, 50, 100, 200 and 250uM was 16.6, 22.0, 13.5, 19.0 and 22.0%, respectively.

  • To study the capacity of callus and shoot formation on seedling stage in soybean, excised hypocotyl, epicotyl, shoot tip, cotyledonary node and primary leaf were cultured on artificial media (MS and B$_{5}$ medium) supplemented with several hormones. Regeneration of shoots was fairly successful from shoot tip and cotyledonary node tissues in soybean. These shoots could be rooted in vitro through tissue culture technique and transplanted normally into soil. Hypocotyl and epicotyl tissues formed only callus, of which growth and appearance were different according to the kinds of media and additives. A small number of shoots were formed from primary leaf tissues, but they did not develop further.r.

  • Bovine oocytes with compact and complete cumulus cells were cultured for up to 24h in TCM199 buffered with 25mmol/l hepes and supplemented with 10% FBS (fetal bovine serum), 1mg/ml $17{\beta}$-estradiol, 20IU/ml hCG(human chorionic gonadotropin). All of the oocytes were divided into at 6 groups depending upon incubation times (control, 0 hour, 6 hours, 12 hours, 16 hours, 18 hours). To all experimental media, $200{\mu}g/ml$ puromycin was added at different incubation times mentioned above. Following these culture times, in vitro insemination was conducted with frozen-thawed bovine spermatozoa in medium BO (Brackett and Oliphant medium for in vitro insemination) with $10{\mu}g/ml$ BSA(bovine serum albumin) and 10 mg/ml heparin added. After 22h culture, the oocytes were fixed with acetic alcohol solution and stained with orcein acetic solution to evaluate sperm nuclear progression. Addition of puromycin after 0, 6 and 12 h of culture resulted in near of oocyte maturation at the M1 stage. Contrariwise, puromycin addition after 12 h of culture led to restoration of nuclear progression to M2 stage. On the one hand, puromycin affected the synthesis of Cyclin B protein that may be involved in the oocyte maturation and sperm capacitation for in vitro fertilization. The present study suggests the participation of protein synthesis, cyclin B, in the oocyte development from M1 to M2 stages in vitro.

  • The possible effect of human follicular fluid(hFF) on the growth and development of fertilized oocytes and embryos is important because the fallopian tubes are exposed to FF after follicular rupture and the processes of fertilization and embryo cleavage occur inside the fallopian tubes. Previously, it was suggested that human FF might adversely affect on the development of early mouse embryos. In order to investigate the effect of hFF on the development of embryos, early mouse embryos were cultured in media containing various protein sources as bovine serum albumin(BSA), fetal cord serum(FCS) and FF. And we evaluated the development of early mouse embryos in terms of the morphology, cleavage rate, and cell count of blastcysts. There were no significant differences in the morula and blstocyst formation rates of 2-cell mouse embryos cultured in the media containg three different protein sources and three different concentrations of FF. The blastocyst formation rate of 1-cell mouse embryo cultured in FF group was significantly higher than that cultured in BSA group(P<0.05). The morula and blastocyst formation rates of 2-cell mouse embryos of the group cultured in the media containing FF were comparable with those of other two groups, in addition, the cell count of blastocysts of FF group in the 2-cell embryo culture was higher than those of BSA group and HCS group(P<0.01), and this finding was also noted in 1-cell embryo culture. There was no difference in the morula and blastocyst formation rates of the 2-cell mouse embryos cultured in the media containing different concentrations of FF. These results suggest that mature human follicular fluid has no inhibitory activity on the development of early mouse embryos even in high concentration and may be a good protein source which is positively associated with the development of mouse embryos in vitro especially in 1 cell embryo culture.

  • The studies were carried out to investigate the effects of co-culture with cumulus cells and oviduct epithelial cells on the in vitro fertilization and cleavage rate of bovine follicular cocytes and to determine the optimum thawing temperature and equilibration time on in vitro developmental rate of frozen bovine embryos. The ovaries were obtained from slaughtered Korean native cows. The follicular oocytes were cultured in TGM-199 medium containing 10 IU /ml의 PM SG, 10 IU /ml의 hCG, ip g/ml의 $\beta$-estradiol and 10% FCS for 24~48 hrs in incubator with 5% $CO_2$ in air at 38.5$^{\circ}C$. The bovine embryos following dehydration by cryoprotective agents and a various concentration of sucrose were directly plunged into liquld nitrogen and thawed in 3$0^{\circ}C$ water. Survival rate was defined as developmental rate on in vitro culture or FDA-test. The results are sunanarized as followes :1. The in vitro fertilization and in vitro developmental rates of bovine oocytes co-cultured with cumulus cells in TCM499 medium were 75.0~76.8% and 17.3~27.6%, respect-ively. And in-vitro fertilization rates of cumulus-enclosed oocytes(55.4%)were significantly(p<0.05) higher than cumulus-denuded oocytes (23.1%). 2. The in vitro fertilization and in vitro developmental rates of bovine oocytes co-cultured with l$\times$ l04cells /ml, 1 x l06cells /ml, lx l08cells /ml and 1 x l015cells /ml oviduct epithelial cells in TCM-199 medium were 74.5~77.8% and 15.7~21.20 respectively.3. The in-vitro fertilization and in vitro developmental rates of bovine oocytes cocultured in '1CM-199 media containing PMSG, hCG, PMSG+hCG. PMSG+$\beta$-estradiol, hCG+$\beta$-estradiol 0 to 40 hrs after insemination were 74.0~77.4% and l8.9~23.l%, re-spectiv ely.4.The survival rates of bovine embryos thawed after rapid freezing in the freezing medium containing a various concentration of sucrose added 1.5M and 2.OM glycerol,DMSO and propanediol were 23.5~31.4% and 20.6~34.l%, respectively. 5. The temperature thawed at 3$0^{\circ}C$ after rapid freezing of bovine embryos resulted in a significantly higher embryos survival rate than did at 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 35$^{\circ}C$.6. The equilibration time on the survival rates of bovine embryos was attained after short period of time(2.5~5 min.) in the freezing medium higher than long period of time (10~20min.).

  • Selection of stress-tolerant ginseng lines in fields is very difficult because it is almost impossible to control properly the environmental conditions of soil. On the contrary, it can be studied with ease to search for stress-tolerant ginseng lines through in vitro culture because of easy manipulation of stress conditions. This study was conducted for the selection of ginseng pure lines tolerant to salt stress. Murashige &amp; Skoog(MS) media with 2.5 folds of KNO$_3$, NH$_4$NO$_3$, MgSO$_4$.7$H_2O$, KH$_2$PO$_4$, and CaC1$_2$.2$H_2O$ was established for the selection of ginseng pure lines tolerant to salt stress in vitro. Among 88 ginseng pure lines bred by Korea Ginseng and Tobacco Research Institute, Punggi Hwangsuk, 78093, 82886, 78135, 86024 and KG104 lines was tolerant to salt stress. For the stable production of quality Korean ginseng, genetic tolerance to salt stress is one of important factors since relatively high salt concentrations in the ginseng nursery soil environment of Korea. Ginseng inbred pure lines were tested for their tolerance to salt stress through in vitro culture technique.

  • Objective: In vitro culture of preimplantation embryos is improved by grouping embryos together in a drop of media. Individually cultured embryos are deprived of paracrine factors; with this in mind, we investigated whether the addition of a single embryo-secreted factor, interleukin-6 (IL-6), could improve the development of individually cultured embryos. Methods: Mouse embryos were cultured individually in $2{\mu}L$ of G1/G2 media in 5% oxygen and supplemented with a range of doses of recombinant mouse or human IL-6. Results: Mouse IL-6 increased hatching at doses of 0.01 and 10 ng/mL compared to the control (93% and 93% vs. 78%, p< 0.05) and increased the total number of cells at a dose of 0.1 ng/mL compared to the control ($101.95{\pm}3.36$ vs. $91.31{\pm}3.33$, p< 0.05). In contrast, the highest dose of 100 ng/mL reduced the total number of cells ($79.86{\pm}3.29$, p< 0.05). Supplementation with human IL-6 had a different effect, with no change in hatching or total cell numbers, but an increase in the percentage of inner cell mass per embryo at doses of 0.1, 1, and 100 ng/mL compared to the control ($22.9%{\pm}1.1%$, $23.3%{\pm}1.1%$, and $23.1%{\pm}1.1%$ vs. $19.5%{\pm}1.0%$, p< 0.05). Conclusion: These data show that IL-6 improved mouse embryo development when cultured individually in complex media; however, an excess of IL-6 may be detrimental. Additionally, these data indicate that there is some cross-species benefit of human IL-6 for mouse embryos, but possibly through a different mechanism than for mouse IL-6.

  • The development of 2-cell mouse embryos to the blastocyst stage in vitro has been used as a quality control for the media empolyed for human in vitro fertilization. There was a comparison between the quality control data of the culture medium as ascertained by 2-cell mouse embryos development and sperm motility and the data from fertilization and cleavage of human oocytes. However, there was no obvious association between fertilization and cleavage of human oocytes and the quality of the medium ascertained by mouse embryo development and sperm motility.

  • In vitro conservation is one of the most effective strategies for rare plant protection, especially for orchid species. To maximize the success rates of in vitro explant establishment (stage I) in conservation programs, the application of tissue culture additives such as Plant Preservative MixtureTM (PPMTM) should be emphasized. In this study, we used Dendrobium thyrsiflorum Rchb.f. (1875) seeds and seedlings as a model for the evaluation of PPMTM's phytotoxicity in the meristematic tissues of epiphytic orchids. PPMTM had no observable inhibitory effect on protocorm, shoot, or root development when it was supplemented at 0.1%. PPMTM supplementation caused adverse effects on D. thyrsiflorum explants at concentrations > 0.2%. At high concentrations, young in vitro seedlings showed damage, especially at the root tissue level. Based on this model, supplementation of 0.1-0.2% PPMTM to culture media was successfully implemented to establish in vitro cultures of other rare orchid species in our conservation program.
