There are numerous publications regarding bovine embryos, ranging from descriptions of their appearance and development to emerging techniques in the field of assisted reproductive technology (ART). Concurrently, several specialized terms have been developed to describe the bovine embryo. Many of these terms are simple, some are difficult to understand and use, and others are antiquated and may not be scientifically accurate. For example, use of terms such as syngamy, conception rate, implantation and embryo resorption should be revisited. This review presents a brief overview of current knowledge regarding the pre-attachment period of the bovine embryo and attempts to define the terms. In this process, conventional terminology is presented, and contemporary and novel terms are proposed from a biological perspective.
有大量关于牛胚胎的出版物,内容涵盖从外观和发育的描述到辅助生殖技术(ART)领域新兴技术的介绍。与此同时,还出现了一些专门术语来描述牛胚胎。其中许多术语简单易懂,有些则难以理解和使用,还有一些术语已经过时,可能在科学上不够准确。例如,应该重新审视“合子”、“受孕率”、“着床”和“胚胎吸收”等术语的使用。本文简要概述了目前关于牛胚胎附着前阶段的知识,并尝试对这些术语进行定义。在这个过程中,我们呈现了传统术语,并从生物学角度提出了当代和新颖的术语。
