    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Science
    • Animal Reproduction

    Background:

    • Embryo transfer in swine is crucial for disseminating superior genetics.
    • Minimizing disease transmission is a key objective in livestock breeding programs.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To outline the established procedures for swine embryo transfer.
    • To highlight the benefits of embryo transfer in swine breeding and disease control.

    Main Methods:

    • Embryo collection involves a ventral midline incision in sows 4-6 days post-estrus, utilizing glass tubes or Foley catheters.
    • Embryo transfer is performed via uterine injection using a tomcat catheter or glass pipette in recipient sows.
    • Collected embryos can be stored in culture medium at 37°C for up to 30 hours post-collection.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Successful application of surgical embryo collection and non-surgical uterine transfer techniques.
    • Demonstrated viability of short-term embryo storage for up to 30 hours.

    Conclusions:

    • Swine embryo transfer is an effective method for genetic improvement and disease risk mitigation.
    • The described techniques support efficient large-scale propagation of genetically superior swine.
