Objective to evaluate the effect of captopril in vitro production of bovine embryos. 472 COCs were usedfrom abattoir ovaries, which were screened, sorted and selected in grades I and II, and submitted to the PIVprocess. The IVM treatments were added in the following concentrations: T1 - control; T2 - 5 mM of captopril;T3 - 10 uM of captopril; and T4 - 15 captopril uM, the COCs were subjected to IVM, IVF CIV. The results showthat there was no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05) between treatments during maturation. Thevariables studied were cleavage and blastocyst rates. The captopril supplementation did not improve (P > 0.05)G1 cleavage rate - 61.84%; G2 - 71.00%; G3 - 68.87%; and G4 - 56.90%. Supplementation of 20μM ofcaptopril influenced the amount of viable embryos.(AU)
