In a second series of experiments, development of additional one-cell mouse embryos was assessed prior to transfer to recipient females after 96 h of culture following supplementation of Global culture medium containing 5 mg/mL AlbIX with 0, 400, 800, and 1200 μM octanoic acid (OA) . N = 163–232 embryos per treatment. Advanced blastocyst; expanded, hatching, or hatched blastocyst stages. Significantly different than control (0 μM OA) within category, *p < 0.05
