猪胚胎开放式拉长细管玻璃化冷冻保存研究

291 embryos (Blastocyst/Morula) from 20 donor sows were vitrified by two step method with OPS (open pulled straw) in solution I (TCM199 + 20% FBS + 10% EG + 10% DMSO) for 3min, and solution II (TCM199 + 20% FBS + 20% EG + 20% DMSO + 0.4mol/L SUC) for 1min, stored in liquid nitrogen for 3 months, and transferred into 8 recipient sows after warming, one recipient sow was pregnant and 8 alive piglets were born. This is the first paper to report getting alive piglets by vitrification in China.
