Description
This SBIR Phase I project aims to develop a novel ultrafast cooling device and companion cell suspension processing device that significantly reduce the need for cryoprotectants and improve the post-thaw viability and functionalities of livestock semen and embryos. These products will potentially greatly facilitate application of livestock artificial insemination (AI) and embryo transfer (ET) technologies.
