Cryopreserved Bovine Embryos Poised to Revolutionize Cattle Industry, Boost Food Production
Cryopreservation of in vitro-produced bovine embryos is important for the cattle industry. Slow freezing works well for embryos from cows, but not for those produced in labs. Vitrification, a faster method, is promising for storing lab-made embryos. It is quicker, cheaper, and has higher survival rates than slow freezing. However, there are challenges like toxicity and lack of standard methods. Finding the best procedure is crucial for making vitrification practical for commercial use.
