The in vitro (IVP) bovine embryos production has several factors that contribute to the variables in the production and quality of oocytes and embryos. We evaluated the parenteral use of vitamin A (VA) and vitamin E (VE) in the production of oocytes collected by follicular aspiration (OPU) and embryos by in vitro production (IVP) in cows (n = 22), where: Simmental (S) (n = 2), Nelore (N) (n = 4), Brahma (B) (n = 5) and Gir (G) (n = 11). All animals were allocated in the pre-treatment (F1) (n = 22) (not receiving vitamins) and the same animals used for post-treatment (F2) (received 1,000,000 IU of vitamin A and vitamin 1g E). The first OPU was in F1, soon after 1,000,000 IU was administered 1 g of VE and VA, and after 12 days was held to make the new OPU F2. Oocytes (COC) were matured, fertilized and cultured in vitro. The OPU 44 yielded 520 oocytes, 217 (F1) and 303 (F2), with significant effect, an increase of 86 oocytes, obtaining mean and standard deviation 9.86 ± 5.53 13.77 ± 2.0 F1 and F2, (*p <0.0219). When separate races NBG (Nelore, Brahman and Gir) (n = 20) there was an increase of 95 oocytes, obtaining mean and standard deviation 9.90 ± 5.81 and 14.65 NBG F1-F2-NBG ± 9.44, (*p <0.0085). The 44 IVP embryos produced 224, 93 F1 and 131 F2, getting mean and standard deviation 4.23 ± 3.09 5.95 ± 4.05 F1 and F2, (*p <0.0228). When separated from the NBG production was 214 embryos, with an increase of 38 embryos, obtaining values of 4.45 ± 3.15 6.25 ± 4.09 F1 and F2, (*p <0.0285). There was a significant effect on the quantity produced of oocytes (n = 22) and NBG oocytes (n = 20). It was an increased in all breeds embryos production (n = 22) and NBG embryos (n = 20). Supplementation with VE and VA increased the total number of oocytes (1.7 ± 0.7); NBG oocytes (1.8 ± 0.8); total embryos (3.9 ± 1.6) and embryos NBG (4 7 ± 1.6). The response of the F2 compared to F1 in the production of oocytes and embryos was significant when all races were grouped together and also when it was grouped only Bos taurus indicus (NBG). The use of vitamins A and E can be used to greater oocyte recovery and embryo in Zebu breeds.
