The Effect of Adding L-Ergothioneine in Culture Medium on Blastocyst Development Rates

Conclusion: In this in vitro study, the database relates the work to antioxidant / cellular protection; mitochondria and energy metabolism; other / safety / exposure / mechanism. EGT added to bovine embryo culture medium was associated with a higher blastocyst rate than control, while cleavage rate was not significantly changed. The current database classifies the evidence level as limited. The conclusion should remain tied to the study model and endpoint described in the database, and should not be generalized beyond the source type or used as a disease-treatment claim.
