Embryo transplant services
Transferring techniques consist of collecting embryos and selecting high
genetic potential transplants for the uterus to receive. The
center ensures that quality recipients are always available.

Why use embryo
transplant services?
Some mares have infertility problems due to an accident or an injury
that caused interine tissue damage. We effect transplantation of embryos to
those mares since they are unable to carry to term but have excellent breeding potential. Also, it is possible
for high potential mares to continue their activities while a designated
recipient mare bear her foal. |

Frozen embryos
Freezing embryos permits to
optimize the reproduction potential of the same brood mare and offers the possibility to
inseminate recipient mares early during the reproduction season.

Embryo micromanipulation
With
constant interaction with the researchers studying embryo tranfer and equine
reproduction, Trans-Bio has successfully tested new approaches, such as sexing equine embryo, developped in 1998.

Embryo shipping
With regards to the standards, we
offer services of freezing or transport of the semen. We are members
of the International Embryo Transfer Association and Canadian Embryo
transfer Association. Our laboratories are also accredited for the
export of equestrian semen by l'Agence Canadienne d'Inspection et de santé
des animaux. To date we have exported more than 3500 embryos of various
species in about thirty countries.
