Evaluation of Liberase, a purified enzyme blend, for the isolation of human primordial and primary ovarian follicles

Abstract

Liberase treatment allows the isolation of highly viable follicles from human ovarian tissue, with an unaltered morphology and ultrastructure. This purified endotoxin-free enzyme preparation is a promising alternative to impure collagenase preparations for the reproducible isolation of intact primordial and primary follicles for culture and grafting purposes.
