  • Title: [Reproductive medicine in transition: new developments in embryo transfer].
    Author: Binder H, Jakob C, Bucher P.
    Journal: Schweiz Arch Tierheilkd; 1996; 138(5):245-50. PubMed ID: 8623045.
    Abstract:
    Successful application of embryo transfer (ET) has become common practice in cattle, horses, sheep, goats and a variety of other species held in captivity. Yet in cattle only has the technique been established commercially. In 1994 more than 100,000 bovine embryos have been transferred in European countries. Important progress in transvaginal ovum pick up (OPU), in vitro production (IVP) and cryopreservation have further improved the applicability of ET. Direct transfer simplifies the procedure considerably allowing individual transfers and eliminating the need of synchronizing recipients. In Switzerland the organization 'Veterinary Society for Embryo Transfer' (TIGET) has been founded in 1995 to support practitioners performing embryo transfer.
