2 Figure 1 Survival rates of mouse blastocysts after vitrification and warming. Hybrid zona pellucida intact: zona pellucida-intact blastocysts from hybrid mouse strain (C57BL/6JxDBA); inbred zona pellucida-intact: zona pellucida-intact blastocysts from inbred mouse strain (C57BL/6J); inbred zona pellucida-free: zona pellucida-free blastocysts from inbred mouse strain (C57BL/6J). Different letters within each group indicate significant differences (P < 0.05). HPC = hydroxypropyl cellulose; SSS = serum substitute supplement; ZP = zona pellucida.

3 Figure 2 Survival rates of human blastocysts after re-vitrification and warming; 5% hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC): 5% HPC-supplemented vitrification media, 5% serum substitute supplement (SSS): 5% SSS-supplemented vitrification media; 20% SSS: 20% SSS-supplemented vitrification media; ZP-intact: ZP-intact blastocysts; ZP-free: ZP-free blastocysts. ZP = zona pellucdia. Different letters within each group indicate significant differences (P < 0.05). Reproductive BioMedicine Online  , DOI: ( /j.rbmo ) Copyright © 2015 Reproductive Healthcare Ltd.

4 Figure 3 Survival rates of mouse vitrified and warmed blastocysts using vitrification media supplemented with or without hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC): (A) combinations of HPC-supplemented solutions used; DS = diluent solution; HPC = with HPC; – = without HPC; ES = equilibrium solution; VS = vitrification solution; WS = washing solution; (B) survival rate of blastocysts after vitrification and warming. Different letters indicate significant differences (P < 0.05). Reproductive BioMedicine Online  , DOI: ( /j.rbmo ) Copyright © 2015 Reproductive Healthcare Ltd. Terms and Conditions

5 Figure 4 Viscosity of vitrification solution (VS); 1% hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC): 1% HPC-supplemented VS; 5% HPC: 5% HPC-supplemented VS; 5% serum substitute supplement; (SSS): 5% SSS-supplemented VS; 20% SSS: 20% SSS-supplemented VS. Different letters indicate significant differences (P < 0.05). Reproductive BioMedicine Online  , DOI: ( /j.rbmo ) Copyright © 2015 Reproductive Healthcare Ltd. Terms and Conditions

6 Figure 5 Oxygen consumption rates of blastocysts after vitrification and warming; (A) oxygen consumption rates of mouse blastocysts after vitrification and warming; non-vitrified: non-vitrified blastocysts; 5% HPC: 5% HPC-supplemented vitrification media; (B) oxygen consumption rates of human blastocysts after re-vitrification and warming. Non-re-vitrified: non-re-vitrified blastocysts; 5% HPC: 5% HPC-supplemented vitrification media. No difference was found in either group. HPC = hydroxypropyl cellulose.
