Human Oocyte Cortical Granules and Microvilli (EM)

Oocyte cortical granules (CG) and microvilli (MV).

A rim of electron-dense cortical granules (arrows) was observed just beneath the oolemma of MII oocytes. Microvilli are numerous and long on the oolemma.

  • MV - microvilli
  • CG - cortical granules
  • PVS - perivitelline space
  • O - oocyte

Scale bar 500 nm.
