The Effects of Substituting Glassware for Plasticware and the Use of an Ethanol Vector on Oocyte Maturation In Vitro

Table 1

Cleavage rate for control, plasticware, and glassware groups.

	Number of oocytes	Cleavage rate (median)	95% C.I. lower limit	95% C.I. upper limit
Control	1088	84.60^a	77.47	89.77
Plasticware	863	78.97^ab	70.16	85.71
Glassware	1113	69.22^bc	58.48	78.22
Plasticware + EtOH	821	81.15^a	74.43	86.43
Glassware + EtOH	1570	69.10^bc	61.33	75.92

Different superscript letters (a, b, c) above values within columns denote significant difference between treatments (𝑃<0.05). Groups with similar letters are not significantly different from each other.
