Buffalo, oocytes, maturationAbstract
The present investigation on in vitro maturation of buffalo oocytes was conducted on oocytes aspirated from
buffalo ovaries obtained from slaughter house. The study revealed that although the buffalo oocytes can be matured in
TCM-199 and Ham's F-10 medium but addition of BES and hormones significantly (P<0.05) improves the maturation of
bubaline oocytes in TCM-199 (68.57%) and Ham's F-10 (61.11) medium.
