    Abstract

    Using a modification of the method of New (1955), preincubated blasoderms of Japanese quail were cultured on different culture media up to 72 h of incubation and the production of subembryonic fluid (SEF) and developmental components were investigated. Preincubation of 18 h and 48 h sustained measurable amounts of SEF and these coincided with heart pumping and development of area vasculosa. Of different culture media used, native albumen and albumen dialysed with tubing of retaining size permitting molecules of mw>2000, produced measurable amounts of SEF and showed better developmental components such as area vasculosa, length of the embryo, area pelluscida and almost showed identical pattern of radial increase of the explanted blastoderms.
