It is very important that bull semen is thawed consistently at the right temperature.
The recommendations are as follows:
- Normal semen 35-36˚C (95˚F) for 45 seconds
- Sexed semen 36-37°C (98˚F) for 40 seconds
- If this does not take place then a percentage of sperm will die long before they ever see a cow, this has even greater consequences for sexed semen and older straws.Our Dairymac Digital SUPERTHAW™ is designed and manufactured in the UK and based on a comprehensive list of ‘needs’ and ‘ desires’ in our discussions with farmers, Ai Technicians and Vets.Dairymac Superthaw™ Flip Lid & AI Gun Lid
