## Abstract The time sequence of the mechanisms that prevent polyspermy in cumulusβfree mouse eggs was determined by continuous microscopic observations during in vitro fertilization. The zona reaction had begun, and the vitelline surface block to polyspermy was established, in less than one minute

This study was carried out to investigate the influence of ethanol on chromosome segregation during the first and second meiotic divisions. Female mice were given a single intragastric injection of a dilute solution of ethanol either just before or at various times after the HCG injection for induci
Characteristic changes in the patterns of protein phosphorylation occur during meiotic maturation of mouse oocytes from the time subsequent to germinal vesicle breakdown, through metaphase 11, and following fertilization. These changes occur during both in vitro or in vivo maturation or fertilizatio
