RUIZ B., Jaime et al. Chemicalactivation ofalpaca oocytes vitrified after in vitro maturation. Rev. investig. vet. Perú [online]. 2011, vol.22, n.3, pp.206-212. ISSN 1609-9117.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the viability of vitrified/thawed alpaca oocytes after in vitro maturation. Alpaca oocytes were retrieved from ovaries obtained in the slaughterhouse of Huancavelica, Peru and matured in vitro for 24-25 h in a modular chamber with 5% O2, 5% CO2 and 90% N2 in TCM-199 medium supplemented with sodium pyruvate, HEPES, gentamycin sulphate, FSH, estradiol 17-and fetal calf serum. Then, oocytes were fully denuded of cumulus cells with 0.1% hyaluronidase and assigned to three treatments: T1 (n=107), oocytes exposed to cryoprotectans and vitrified; T2 (n=121), oocytes exposed to cryoprotectans without vitrification; and T3 (n=232), control group of oocytes not exposed to vitrification solutions. Alpaca oocytes were vitrified in microdrops on a precooled aluminum foil floating in liquid nitrogen, using an equilibrium solution with 4% ethylene glycol and a vitrification solution with 35% ethylene glycol, 5% polyvinyl-pyrrolidone and 0.4 M trehalose. The vitrified microdrops were stored in liquid nitrogen and were thawed 1-4 d later. All oocytes were cultured on SOF-HEPES with 5 mM Ca ionomycin by 4 min at room temperature followed by 3 h incubation in 6- DMAP at 38.5 ºC in a 5% O2, 5% CO2 and 90% N2 in humidified atmosphere. Subsequently, were cultivated on mSOF medium during 8 days. The rates of oocytes survival were 58.4, 68.7 and 97.3% in T1, T2 and T2 respectively. The rates of cleavage were 39.9, 49.5 and 62.3% and rates of development to blastocysts were 0, 0 and 9.2% in T1, T2 and T3 respectively. The results showed that alpaca oocytes were morphologically and physiologically viable after vitrification by solid surface method.
