The developmental rates of porcine embryos frozen with 0.5 mg/ml AFPs in freeze medium and cultured for 12 and 24 hours in vitro are 25% and 0%respectively. With the concentration of AFPs increased to 5 mg/ml, the corresponding values became 80% and 40%. The hatched rates for porcine embryos frozen with 0.5 mg/ml and 5 mg/ml of AFPs and cultured for 24 hours in vitro are 0% and 20% respectively..The developmental and hatched rate of the contnrol are all 0%(0/4). These results indicate that the survival rates of porcine expanded and hatched blastocyst can be improved by supplementing freeze medium with plant AFPs.展开更多
