    The present study was conducted to clarify the effect of heparin dosage and sperm capacitation time on in vitro fertilization (Experiment 1) and cleavage (Experiment 2) rates of bovine oocytes matured in vitro. For in vitro fertilization, seven dosages of heparin (0, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 and 200 mug/ml) and nine incubation periods (0, 5, 15, 30, 45, 60, 120, 180 and 240 min) in a capacitation medium were examined, using 6,634 oocytes. The mean proportions of fertilized oocytes in 25, 50 and 100 mug/ml of heparin were significantly (P<0.05) higher (53 to 59%) than in the other dosages (3 to 44%). Incubation with heparin for longer than 60 min lowered the frequencies of fertilization (20 to 36%) compared with the shorter incubation periods (38 to 49%). Higher proportions of fertilized oocytes were obtained by 5, 15, 30 or 45 min of incubation (42 to 49%) than by the other time periods (20 to 38%). Cleavage rates were found by using 2,098 oocytes in a factorial study (4 x 4 x 15: dosages -25, 50, 100 and 200 mug/ml; incubation periods -0, 15, 30 and 60 min; and replicates). The incubation periods and replicates resulted in highly significant differences (P<0.001) in development rates to eight-cell stage, but the four dosages of heparin showed no significant differences. The present results indicate that heparin dosage and sperm capacitation time are important factors influencing in vitro fertilization and cleavage rates. Optimal heparin dosages for the capacitation of bull spermatozoa ranged from 25 to 100 mug/ml; optimal incubation periods ranged from 5 to 60 min.
