## Abstract The optimal oxygen tension for development of preimplantation mouse embryos to the blastocyst stage in vitro was found to be between 2.5% and 5%. Oneβ and twoβcell embryos had a more sharply defined range of oxygen tension capable of supporting development than 8βcell and morula stages.
## Abstract Day 9 mouse embryos were cultured in 50% fetal calf serum and 50% Waymouth's medium supplemented with various amounts of insulin. Unmodified medium contained approximately 25% of the normal adult mouse blood insulin. The addition of 0.1 to 1.0 ΞΌg insulin/ml to Waymouth's medium was most
