Advancements in assisted reproduction (AR) methodologies have allowed significant
improvements in live birth rates of women who otherwise would not be able to conceive …

The ability to evaluate sperm at the microscopic level, at high-throughput, would be useful
for assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs), as it can allow specific selection of sperm …

Infertility affects approximately 15–20% of individuals of reproductive age worldwide. Over
the last 40 years, assisted reproductive technology (ART) has helped millions of childless …

Currently, in vitro embryo production (IVP) is successfully commercially applied in cattle.
However, the high sensitivity of embryos to cryopreservation in comparison to in vivo (IVD) …

This work describes the use of mass spectrometry-based metabolomics as a non-invasive
approach to accurately predict birth prior to embryo transfer (ET) starting from embryo culture …

Introduction Different gene expression between male and female bovine embryos leads to
metabolic differences. Objective We used UHPLC-MS/MS to identify sex metabolite …

NMR offers the potential to holistically screen hundreds of metabolites and has already
proved to be a powerful technique able to provide a global picture of metabolic changes in a …

Introduction Bovine female and male embryos differentially release metabolites with
signalling effects to culture media. However, it is unknown if the embryo-maternal interface …

In cattle, lateral asymmetry affects ovarian function and embryonic sex, but the underlying
molecular mechanisms remain unknown. The plasma metabolome of recipients serves to …

Simple Summary With conventional breeding practices, even the best dairy/beef cows will
likely produce no more than half-a-dozen calves in their lifetimes; a crime, would you not …
