Transcervical is more efficient than surgical embryo collection in Brazilian hair sheep.

Transcervical is more efficient than surgical embryo collection in Brazilian hair sheep.

This study compared the efficiency of either transcervical (TC) or surgical (laparotomy; LP) embryo collection in hair sheep. Santa Inês ewes (n = 27) were subjected to a short-term protocol for estrus synchronization and superovulation. Both cervix passage attempt and laparoscopic corpora lutea (CL) count were performed 12 to 24 h before embryo collection. This study demonstrated the overall superior efficiency of TC embryo collection in Brazilian hair sheep.
