1. Pilot project to improve the production of exotic female cattle by using in vitro fertilization (IVF)
   and embryos freezing technique

Innovation

The innovation pilot project leading to improve the production of exotic female cattle by using in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryos freezing technique. The IVF technique can be improved its efficiency by using sorted X-sperm to produce female embryos. The sorted X-sperm from dairy bulls will be fertilized in vitro with eggs collected from ovaries of dairy cattle. At 7-8 days post fertilization, the embryos will be cryopreserved by vitrification technique. The frozen embryos will be warmed and transferred to uterine horn recipients. This success rate can be confirmed by examine sex and development of calves born in the following time. The pregnancy rate after transfer fresh and vitrified embryos will be examined to confirm that the vitrification technique is efficient and reliable for production of exotic female dairy cattle in Thailand.
