Bring your genetic value to the next level with SexcelÂŽ sexed genetics...

New 21st Century ABS has been working on developing this new technology for a number of years. This pioneering breakthrough is the most advanced since sorted semen was introduced years ago.

The novel technology does not subject the cells to high pressures, electric currents and shear forces of the technology currently in use in the industry.

More Options

More Heifers Sexed genetics give you the opportunity to produce more heifers for your herd as replacements. Sexcel enables you to breed higher genetic merit heifers whilst also reducing bio-security risks in your herd, allowing you to grow from within.

Sexed genetics gives you more options and potential to increase your cash flow. You can use Sexcel on your top heifers to create replacements. Then use the remainder of your herd; • •

to produce extra heifers for expansion or for sale to complete a beef on dairy programme

More Milk

More Genetic Value

Even More Benefits

Studies have shown that the gestation of a daughter on the first parity increases milk production by ~445kg over the first two lactations.

ABS is committed to using the best available sires for Sexcel. By selecting your best heifers and pairing them with Sexcel, you can fast forward the genetic progress in your herd.

Heifer calves are generally born more easily, reducing risk of calving problems and the financial impact that is associated with this.

How does it perform?

We have tested and validated Sexcel extensively to be confident of its performance. We were able to do this through field trials involving over 12,000 units of Sexcel.

Relative Conception Rate (%)

Our trials show that Sexcel achieves a higher relative conception rate when compared to conventional semen than other sexed genetic products available on the market.*

*Relative conception rate (RCR) measures conception rate of sexed semen compared to conception rate of conventional semen from the same sires. Data is taken from inseminations in heifers with pregnancy checks at 30-90 days. This data does not reflect a head to head trial. Data source: Sexcel data is from a 2016 ABS field trial. Stud A, B, C, D, E data is from customer commercial results 2014-2017 reported through the ABS Real World Data®database for the major bull studs in the AI industry.

“I have every confidence in the product and I look forward to using more of it in the future. The best thing about Sexcel is being able to get the very best genetics sexed, with the added bonus of higher conception rates*” Alastair Thompson, Northern Ireland * according to the observations of the customer

Sexcel® Genetics - Straw Handling Guidelines At Genus ABS, the experience when using our genetics is a priority. Every semen collection from Genus ABS Sires undergoes a series of rigorous quality control evaluations to ensure that every straw sold meets our high standards.

To get the best possible results from using Sexcel genetics, please also follow our heifer rearing protocols, available at www.abssexcel.com and please use the following straw handling protocols:

1.

Straw identification and transfer

• Use the tank inventory card to identify the goblet location containing the straw.

• Never lift the goblet above the frost line in the neck of the tank.

• If the straw is not identifiable within 10 seconds, lower the goblet back into the liquid nitrogen for at least 10 seconds before recommencing identification.

• Use the appropriate tweezers for 0.25cc straws, never fingers, to pick up straws.

2.

Thawing procedure

• Genus ABS recommends thawing only one straw of Sexcel at a time as the objective is to thaw

the number of straws that can be inseminated within 5 minutes of thawing.

• Replace the thaw bath water daily and ensure the temperature is between 35C to 37C (95F to

98F) using a thermometer.

• Thaw the straw in the water bath for 30 seconds.

• Remove the straw from the water using tweezers and protect from the environment using a clean, dry paper towel. Use the paper towel to dry the straw.

3.

Move the air bubble

• Gently shake the straw taking it with the tip of your fingers by the crimped end to move the semen to the plugged end and air upwards to the crimped end of the straw. Shaking the straw will not damage the sperm cells, if the bubble is not moved, 1-5% of the sperm will be lost.

• Ensure that there is minimal time between removing the straw from the thawing bath and loading it into the AI gun, and that you protect the straw from cold wind and sun light.

4.

Load the AI gun

• Place the thawed straw into the pre-warmed AI gun with the plugged end first.

• Cut the straw at 90 degrees 1cm below the crimped end, with clean scissors or a straw cutter.

• Place the plastic sheath over the loaded AI rod. Ensure that the straw enters and adapts well inside the green or blue plastic piece of the sheath.

• Carefully depress the plunger so that semen enters the end of the straw but not does escape from the sheath, removing the air bubble from the straw.

• The use of a plastic ‘chemise sanitaire’ is recommended on top of the AI gun sheath.

5.

Number of straws per heifer

• Inseminate one complete straw per heifer, do not split straws.

25

Note: Sexcel may be used solely for single artificial insemination of one female bovine during natural ovulation with the intent to produce a single offspring.

Sexcel® Success - Heifer Rearing To maximise the best possible chance of success when using Sexcel, heifers should be settled, stress free and have been reared successfully to an optimal weight and body condition score.

1.

Rearing management goals

• Complete any veterinary recommended preventative treatments such as vaccinations disease or anthelmintic treatments at least 4 weeks prior to breeding.

• Keep the heifer group in the same group and environment (breeding pen) for 6 weeks prior to and following breeding.

• Keep the heifers on the same diet for the 6 weeks prior to and following breeding;

i.

Increasing the nutritional value of the ration prior to breeding is advisable under the

guidance of a nutritional consultant.

ii.

Special attention to levels of copper, zinc, selenium, iodine and vitamins A and E are

needed over the 12 week period before service.

• Avoid new heifers entering the group during the breeding period where possible.

• 55-60% of target mature weight at start of planned breeding (330-360 kg for an animal expected to calve in at 600kg).

• At least 12 months of age.

• Target body condition score of 2.5-3.0 at service.

• Growth rates of 0.75-0.8kg/day are recommended for Holstein Friesians from birth to calving.

• Target 90% of mature weight at calving.

2.

Breeding period

• Observe heifers for at least 3 weeks prior to breeding to ensure normal oestrous events are occurring.

i.

Observing 2 natural heat events is best.

• If no oestrous is expressed prior to start of breeding or the heifer has not expressed oestrus within 4 weeks of eligibility for insemination, present to a veterinary surgeon for examination.

• Accurately identify heifers that are eligible for service.

• Best results are obtained when inseminating heifers following excellent heat detection accuracy.

• Expect lower conception rates when breeding to observed heats or at fixed time breeding following hormone intervention strategies.

• Use a safe and low stress handling facilities for restraining heifers for insemination.

• Retain heifers in the breeding group until 6 weeks post breeding and when confirmed pregnant.

• Use records - Accurately record the identification of the heifer inseminated and Sexcel product used.
