Resumen en inglés To compare the effects of two-(2D, microplate) and three-dimensional (3D, alginate) culture systems on the in vitro growth of small antral follicles in cattle, individual follicles were separately cultured in the two culture systems for 8 days. Half of the culture medium was replaced by fresh medium every 2 days; the former medium was used to assess the amount of follicular hormone secretion using ELISA. Individual follicle morphology, diameter, and survival rate were recorded every alternate day. The results showed that in 4 days, there was no significant difference between the two systems, except that the growth rate of follicles in 2D system was relatively faster. After 4 days, estradiol concentration in 3D system was higher than that in 2D system. However, progesterone concentration was lower than that in the 2D system. The survival rate and oocyte quality of follicles in 2D system were significantly lower than those in 3D system on day 8. The follicle diameter slightly increased (30-60 μm) in the entire process. Taken together, for in vitro culture of follicles within 4 days, the 2D culture system is more suitable. However, when the culture duration is >4 days, the 3D culture system is more suitable
