摘要:
It comprises a tube or catheter (1) that is introduced into the animal's vagina up to the cervix duct (19); characterized in that it additionally comprises a flexible probe (6) constituted of a first flexible tubular body (12), and the outside of which is covered by a layer of a flexible material; all to allow that the probe, after reaching the distal end of the tube (1), may progress through the cervix duct (19) and thereafter through the cervix horn (22). This structure allows to introduce a fluid with spermatozoids, embryos or therapeutic solutions to the anterior third of the uterus horn, or to obtain embryos from the anterior portions of the uterus horn, and all this without sedation or anesthesia and without disturbing the animal's well-being. To facilitate obtaining embryos, the probe includes an elastic small external coating (28) that is inflated through a flexible tube (27) for adapting itself to the uterus horn (22) preventing refluxes when carrying out absorption. It is essentially applied to porcine livestock, small ruminants and any other animal species.
摘要:
The device comprises a tube or catheter (1) that is introduced into the vagina of the animal up to the cervical duct (19). It is characterized in that it also comprises a flexible tube (6) consisting of a first flexible tubular body (7), the inside of which comprises at least one flexible conduit (12) and the outside of which is covered with a coating (8) of flexible material thereby enabling the flexible tube to advance along the cervical duct (19) and then along the uterine horn (22) after it has reached the distal end of the tube (1). Said structure makes it possible to introduce a fluid with sperm, embryos or therapeutic solutions into the anterior third of a uterine horn or to collect embryos from the anterior portions of the uterine horn without having to resort to sedation or anesthesia and without disturbing the wellbeing of the animal. In order to facilitate the collection of embryos, the flexible tube includes a small outer coating (28) that is inflated through a flexible tube (27) which adapts to the uterine horn (22) and prevents reflux when absorption is carried out. It is used especially in pigs, small ruminants and other animal species.
