Table 2

The effect of LPA supplementation of in vitro maturation medium on cleavage and blastocyst rates on day 2 and day 7, respectively.

Supplement	Matured oocytes, 𝑛	Cleaved embryos, 𝑛	Cleavage rate, %	Blastocyst on day 7, 𝑛	Blastocyst rate, %

LPA (10^−5 M)	190	108	56,8	54	28,4

Proportion of cleaved embryos and of blastocysts relative to the total number of matured oocytes.
