Let's talk about in-vitro fertilization!

There are two methods of producing embryos in cattle, IVF is the method where we combine egg and s***m in the petri dish.

Powerhouse Embryonics is proud to offer this service in-house in Provost, Alberta! This means the collection from donor cows, (also known as o**m pick-up or OPU) is done at our facilities in Provost, as well as all the laboratory work. We are excited to offer this advanced reproductive technology to local producers!

Some of the advantages of in-vitro fertilization include:
- Collections from pregnant donors. IVF allows you to keep your donor in production while also producing embryos.
- Utilization of rare or expensive semen through pooling oocytes. One straw of conventional semen may be used to fertilize more than one donor's oocytes.
- Shorter collection intervals. Donors may be collected for IVF with shorter time intervals between collections and postpartum.

Do you have any questions about in-vitro fertilization or how it may be utilized to reach your genetic goals? Our team would love to answer your questions!
