Analysis of mice (Mus Musculus L.) and hamster embryo development using culture and vitrification medium: Systematic review

Abstract

Background: The success of embryo production is largely determined by the accuracy of making medium formulations that are adapted to the age of embryo growth. It is known that the cryopreservation method is widely used for the vitrification of embryos frozen at -196°C. Aims: This study aimed to analyze the embryonic development of mice (Mus musculus L.) and hamsters using culture and vitrification media. Method: This method uses the Preferred Guide to Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA). Results: Based on the search results, a total of 700 articles were obtained which then entered the elimination stage, resulting in 37 articles on the Development of Rat Embryos (Mus musculus L.) and Hamsters Using Culture and Vitrification Media. Conclusion: Thus, it can be concluded that the identification of the embryonic development of mice (Mus musculus L.) and hamsters can be used with the use of culture media and the development of vitrification methods.
