Defined Medium for Porcine Embryos (PZM-5)

Medium to culture porcine embryosPZM-5 medium is an improved defined medium ##3)### developed from the previous PZM-4 medium (Yoshioka et al. 1, ##2)###) for porcine embryo culture. This is useful for the culture of in vitro-derived embryos and in vivo-derived embryoscollected after an artificial insemination. This medium is sterilized and effectively supports porcine embryo development under a low oxygen condition (5%O$$2$$$/5%CO$$2$$$/90%N$$2$$$, 39°C).

Note: PZM-5 medium is for research use only. Do notuse in animals, humans, or diagnostic procedures.
