Freezing
Main
goal of freezing semen is to eliminate the time factor on the male side
of fertilization. By freezing it is possible to maintain the semen in
good shape for a very long time. This facilitates the management around
fertilization and makes it possible to transport semen throughout the
world. Semen can be used for future generations. However despite
advanced techniques it is inevitable that one looses some fertilizing
capacity. Freezing and thawing of semen damages the sperm cell. The
lifespan of frozen semen after insemination is shorter then
fresh-extended or fresh semen. The ability to freeze semen of specific
species or individuals within a certain species can vary enormously.
For freezing we use 0,25 or 0,50 cc plastic straws.
For
identification of the straws we use inkjet or stickers. The cost of
freezing semen is different for the various species and includes a
certificate and the storage for the first year. All costs need to be
paid immediately at the time of freezing the semen. |
