Objectives: The purpose of this research was to study the independent effect of the amino acid glutamine on preimplantation mouse embryo development in vitro.
Study Design: Two-cell stage mouse embryos were cultured in human tubal fluid medium in the presence and absence of 1 mmol/L of glutamine. Outcomes for morphology and cleavage rates were compared with Fisher's and Mann-Whitney's tests, respectively.
