<jats:p> Oocytes were matured in medium supplemented with 5% serum collected from superovulated cows at oestrus (Day-0 SCS) or at the time of embryo collection (Day-7 SCS), or in medium supplemented with fetal calf serum (FCS). After insemination using frozen-thawed sperm, oocytes were cultured in vitro with medium supplemented with 5% Day-0 SCS or 5% Day-7 SCS or 5% FCS. The proportions of embryos that cleaved were not significantly different among treatments, whereas development of the embryo to a blastocyst was significantly higher in the presence of SCS than FCS. When the four possible combinations of Day-0 SCS and Day-7 SCS were used in the maturation and culture media, there were no differences among treatments, except that the cleavage rate was significantly higher (P < 0.05) with Day-0 SCS in the maturation medium and Day-7 SCS in the culture medium than with Day-7 SCS in the maturation medium and Day-0 SCS in the culture medium. The proportions of embryos that cleaved and developed to blastocysts were not related with the level of progesterone and luteinizing hormone in the serum added to the maturation and culture media. However, the use of serum with low concentrations of glucose, fatty acids and cholesterol in the maturation medium and the culture medium tended to be associated with a higher rate of cleavage and blastocyst development. </jats:p>
