The culture of early embryos in the surrogate xeno-oviduct was first developed in the early
1950s to allow transport of embryos at long distances. Later, it was applied to the study of
culture requirements of the early embryo especially that of bovine origin. In this article, we
review the data available on the culture of in vitro–matured and in vitro–fertilized embryos of
Bos taurus, Sus scrofa, Equus caballus and Ovis aries in the surrogate sheep oviduct
compared with data on in vitro culture in different media. Short-term and long-term cellular …
