✦ Synopsis

Abstract

A method is described for in vitro culture of naked growing mouse oocytes for at least four days. Tests for metabolic function indicate that the oocytes increase in volume, accumulate glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase, and maintain a steady level of ^3^H‐uridine and ^3^H‐leucine incorporation.

## Abstract The effects of dibutyryl cyclic AMP on the maturation of the mouse oocyte in vitro were studied. It was found that concentrations of 100 μg/ml or greater prevented germinal vesicle breakdown in more than 95% of the treated oocytes. The inhibition of maturation was found to be a reversib

Porcine ovarian oocytes, isolated from follicles of 5 mm in diameter (large oocytes), were fused either together or with oocytes isolated from follicles of 0.5 mm in diameter (small oocytes).
