Abstract

An apparatus and method for the non-surgical removal of embryos in swine and for the transfer and placement of the embryos into a surrogate mother sow. An introducer and speculum are used and are introduced through the cervix of the sow. The tip of the introducer vibrates at a high frequency those vibrations are transmitted to the distal end of a specially contoured tip. A catheter apparatus is used after gaining entry to the uterus, and the catheter apparatus includes coaxially aligned inner and outer catheters. The outer catheter has a pair of individually inflatable and deflatable cuffs and an ingress port between the cuffs and an outlet for the discharge of fluid. Continued discharge of the flushing fluid from the distal end of the inner catheter causes a flushing of the embryos from the uterine horn to the collection chamber. The embryos are separated from the flushing fluid and subjected to a standard protocol in order to provide pathogen free embryos for transfer and international distribution.
