The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of fatty acid-free bovine serum albumin (BSA) or fetal calf serum (FCS) on the re-expansion of biopsied blastocysts and post-warm viability of subsequently vitrified embryos. Firstly, blastocysts produced in vitro were biopsied at Day 7 and cultured to allow repair in TCM199 with 0.3% BSA or 5% FCS for 24 h. The re-expansion rates and mean total numbers of cells of the re-expanded embryos after the repair culture with BSA were almost the same as that with FCS. Secondly, after biopsied embryos were similarly cultured for repair with BSA or FCS, re-expanded embryos were selected for vitrification. After warming and exposure to 0.5 M sucrose with 20% FCS in mPBS, the embryos were cultured in TCM199 with 5% FCS for 24 h. The re-expansion rate and mean total number of cells in re-expanded blastocysts in the BSA treatment group (97.4 ± 2.9% and 106 ± 42) was significantly higher than that in the FCS treatment group (51.6 ± 9.1% and 61 ± 38), respectively (P<0.05 and P<0.01). In conclusion, both FCS and BSA supplementation can be useful for repairing cultures of bovine biopsied blastocysts; but, compared with BSA supplementation, FCS supplementation during repair culture reduces the post-warm viability of biopsied and subsequently vitrified embryos.
