Table 3.

Effect of glucose concentration during mouse IVC on survival to term, litter sex ratio and pup body weight at the day of birth. Ten embryos were transferred to each recipient (in total 100 embryos for 0.2 mM and 120 for 28 mM). Different letters (a and b) indicate significant differences between both treatments based on one-way ANOVA (P<0.05). Superscripts α and β indicate significant differences between sexes in pup weight based on two-way ANOVA (P<0.05).
