Abstract: The aim of this study was to improve the primary culture method of bovine endometrial cells and to identify their characteristics. Tissue pieces culture method and tissue pieces culture first again after digestion and purification methods were used respectively to isolate and culture bovine endometrial cells. The tissue-specific expression of cytokeratin genes in mammary epithelial cells was identified by immunofluorescent cytochemical staining. The results show that the tissue pieces culture first again after digestion purified method can acquire high percent of live cells and high purity of cells. Therefore, this method is an easy repeatable method for bovine endometrial epithelial cells culture in vitro. The cells obtained by this method can be cultured up to 4-5 passages in vitro, the culture of bovine endometrial cells in vitro establishes a foundation for research of physiological and mechanism of bovine reproduction.
