dc.description.abstract | This technical study presents the sitometry flow method, which is the only
methodof bovine semen sexing. It is based on DNA content which differs between
X and Y chromosomes in sperm. Sperm is marked with a fluorescent vital dye
(Hoechst). The sperm with the X chromosome emit stronger signal than those who
have a Y chromosome. The fluorescence emitted by a single spermatozoon is
detected by cytometry flow. The device has a laser beam, which excites the
fluororhore thus emitting light. Two sensor arranged at a 90º angle measure the
fluorescence. One of the sensors, facing directly the sperm, determines DNA
content. Female sperm X contain more DNA and, and consequently, a higher
reflectivity than male sperm Y. the information is sent to a computer for data
analysis which helps separate the male and female into 2 separate populations
through an electric field.
The use of sexed semen did not affect milk production and did not produce genetic
damage. There is 90% efficiency of calves born that will be female. However, the
use of sexed semen will cause reduced fertility and it is only recommended with
first-calf heifers. | |
