Effect of Hyaluronan Enriched Transfer Medium on Conception Rate in Bovine Embryo Transfer

Abstract
The present study was conducted to assess the effect of hyaluronan (HA) supplementation in the embryo transfer medium of in vivo produced, vitrified and warmed embryos on conception rate in bovines. The study was conducted in 12 recipient cows which were randomly divided into two groups viz. Group I (embryo transfer media with hyaluronan, experimental group) and Group II (embryo transfer media without hyaluronan, control group). The vitrified and warmed embryos were suspended in the embryo transfer medium according to the group, cultured and transferred to the synchronized recipients. The pregnancy diagnosis after 60 days revealed 50 and 33.33 per cent conception rate in Group I and II recipients, respectively. From the study it is evident that the enrichment of hyaluronan in the embryo transfer medium has beneficial effect on enhancing the conception rate in bovines.
