Several glycerol (GLY) dilution treatments were compared using frozen-thawed early blastocysts from Swiss Webster mice. These treatments consisted of 0.00 (0.00S n = 68), 0.25 (0.25S n = 67), 0.50 (0.50S n = 76), 0.75 (0.75S n = 66), 1.00 (1.00S n = 59), and 1.25 (1.25S n = 60) M of sucrose to remove GLY from embryos in one step. Then the one step procedure was compared with a three-step GLY dilution treatment (C n = 66). Embryos were exposed to 1.5 M of GLY in three-steps, frozen according to a standard freezing technique and stored at -196 degrees C. Embryos were thawed in a 37 degrees C water bath, pooled, and those graded good or excellent were randomly assigned to the experimental groups. The blastocysts were cultured in Whitten's medium microdrops under paraffin oil in a water saturated 5% CO(2) air atmosphere at 37 degrees C. The proportion (%) of embryos developing to expanded blastocysts was lowest (P < 0.05) in treatment 0.00S (63.1 +/- 4.0). The 0.25S (72.0 +/- 4.3) and 0.50S (75.0 +/- 3.1) 0.75S (79.0 +/- 4.4) treatments yielded a similar percentage of expanded blastocysts. The 1.00S treatment (87.0 +/- 4.0) was similar to 0.75S and 1.25S (98.3 +/- 4.0) treatments. The C treatment was superior (P < 0.05) to dilutions done with < 0.75 M sucrose, similar to 0.75S and 1.00S, and inferior (P < 0.05) to 1.25S. This later treatment yielded the highest percentage of expanded blastocysts. The percentage of embryos that hatched in treatments 0.00S, 0.25S, 0.50S, 0.75S and C was lower (P < 0.05) compared to 1.00S and 1.25S. The percentage of embryos and hatched blastocysts increased linearly (P < 0.01) from 0.0 to 1.25 M sucrose. Dilution of GLY with 1 or 1.25 M sucrose yielded better results compared with lower sucrose concentrations or the three-step GLY removal procedure.
