| Abstrakt: | A comparison between static versus rotator culture systems and a variety of media (rat serum, new born calf serum, DMEM and Waymouth's) was made in an attempt to promote in vitro growth of mouse embryos from the beginning of neurulation (headfold stage) to the closure of the neural tube and formation of the limb buds (48 h). The results demonstrate that good development can be achieved for 48 h using a rotator system and that 80% of embryos cultured on rotators show growth and differentiation similar to that obtained for the same time period in vivo. Static cultures are less successful and embryos grown in this system show lower protein content and somite numbers than those maintained on rotators. Undiluted rat serum is superior to all other media tested and supports better growth and development as monitored by total protein and developmental abnormalities. |
