Follicle Structure Influences the Availability of Oxygen to the Oocyte in Antral Follicles

<table>Mean follicular fluid (FF) O<sub>2</sub> concentration versus follicle radius for (A) the COC incorporated into the follicle wall, (B) the COC resting on the inner boundary of the follicle wall, (C) the COC a distance of one radius (<svg height="11.05" id="M60" style="vertical-align:-3.24037pt" version="1.1" viewbox="0 0 15.3375 11.05" width="15.3375" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
