Different stages of embryonic development of mice embryos produced in vitro. (A) Fertilized oocyte; (B) two-cell stage; (C) four-cell stage; (D) eight-cell stage; (E) Morula; (f) Blastocyst.
Effect of selenium nanoparticle on the number of embryos in two-cell stage (A) four-cell stage (B) morula stage (C) blastocyst stage (D) blastocyst rate (E) and cleavage rate (F) development in various experimental groups. Similar letters indicated that the difference was not statistically significant. Different letters mean significant differences (P ≤ 0.05).
