[QUOTE="Lorenzo, post: 603164, member: 5104"] I have done some search in this forum and it seems nobody uses IVF embryos :shock: :shock: :shock: Instead you are flushing the best donors..??? more :shock: :shock: Why is this ? There are not much IVF labs there ? IVF allows somone to use better or more expensive semen because you just need less straws, with one straw we are inseminating around 10 cows. Also you protect the donors as you don't have to give them hormons. Many flushings can spoil donors for ever.... With this technology you can have aprox. 30 offsprings per cow per year against less than 10 that you can have flushing and spoiling the best donors. Also you can have offsprings of 8 months females, pregnat cows, dead cows, or cows that doesn't work anymore because of too much flushing. The weakness of this technology is that you need a lot of receiptors as you have to transfer the embryos at the seven days of the insemination, so you work with them "fresh". If you frozen them you will not have good pregnacies rates. But with a little of logistics and enough receiptors you should not think it twice !! L [/QUOTE]
