Improvement of in vitro oocyte growth from porcine early antral follicles using polyacrylamide gel as a culture substrate

In this project, we examined the effect of polyacrylamide gel (PAG) as a culture substrate on the development of porcine oocytes derived from early antral follicles (EAFs) and number of granulosa cells consisting of the oocyte and granulosa cell complexes (OGCs) and ATP, lipid, and acetylated level of lysine in oocytes grown in vitro.
