This study was undertaken to compare the efficiency of recovery rate and development rate of follicular oocytes collected either by aspiration or by slicing method. The follicular oocytes collected by the two methods matured in TCM199 supplemented with 10% steer serum at 39$^{circ}C$ in a humidified atmosphere of 5% $CO_2$in air. After 22 h of culture, the oocytes were inseminated with frozen-thawed semen (2$ imes$10$^{6}$ sperm/ml of final concentration) prepared with Percoll-density gradient in IVF-TALP medium for 16 h. Later, sets of 15 presumptive zygotes were transferred into 50 $mu$L, droplets of CR1aa medium. On day 4 of the culture, embryos were transferred to TCM199 until day 9. The percentages of nuclear maturation to pre-metaphase II in the oocytes collected by aspiration are significantly (P<0.05) higher than that by slicing (83% vs. 62%, respectively). The mean number of oocytes recovered by slicing per ovary is significantly (P<0.05) higher than that by aspiration (15.1 vs. 6.7, respectively). Although the rates of cleavage and development to blastocyst of oocytes collected b)\\`aspiration are significantly (P<0.05) higher than that by slicing, the number of transferable embryos obtained by slicing method is significantly (P<0.05) higher than that by aspiration. From the results. we may conclude that slicing method is better than aspiration method for obtaining large number of transferable embryos per ovary.
