Purpose: To improve the development of frozen mouse embryos by adding fibroblast growth factors (FGF) and hepatocytes (HGF) to the culture medium. Materials and Methods: Two-cell mouse embryos obtained from the fallopian tube and frozen by cryotopic method were treated in T6 medium with a dose of 20 ng / ml FGF and 20 ng / ml HGF. The results of their culture were compared with control groups a...
