LOW-TEMPERATURE SEMEN CRYOPRESERVATION DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18489969 titled 'LOW-TEMPERATURE SEMEN CRYOPRESERVATION DEVICE

Simplified Explanation: This invention is a device for low-temperature semen cryopreservation that ensures even distribution of cryoprotectant fluid in the cryopreservation tube.

  • The device includes a box body for holding cryoprotectant fluid, a tray connected to the box body, and a limiting plate for controlling the movement of the cryopreservation tube.
  • Two openings on the box body allow for the insertion of the limiting plate, which, when switched, tilts the tray to rotate the cryopreservation tube for even fumigation.
  • This rotation ensures that the cryoprotectant fluid evenly coats the tube, enhancing the pre-cooling effect.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Device for low-temperature semen cryopreservation
  • Ensures even distribution of cryoprotectant fluid in the cryopreservation tube
  • Tray and limiting plate mechanism for rotating the tube
  • Improves pre-cooling effect of cryopreservation process

Potential Applications:

  • Medical research laboratories
  • Fertility clinics
  • Animal breeding facilities

Problems Solved:

  • Uneven distribution of cryoprotectant fluid in cryopreservation tubes
  • Inefficient pre-cooling process in semen cryopreservation

Benefits:

  • Enhanced effectiveness of semen cryopreservation
  • Improved viability of stored semen samples
  • Simplified and efficient cryopreservation process

Commercial Applications: Low-Temperature Semen Cryopreservation Device: Enhancing the Efficiency of Semen Storage and Fertility Preservation

Questions about Low-Temperature Semen Cryopreservation Device: 1. How does the device improve the pre-cooling effect in semen cryopreservation? 2. What are the potential applications of this technology in the field of animal breeding?


Original Abstract Submitted

This invention provides a low-temperature semen cryopreservation device, comprising: a box body for containing low-temperature cryoprotectant fluid; a tray, one end of which is pivotally connected to the inner side wall of the box body, and a limiting portion is provided on the tray for limiting the movement of the cryoprotectant tube. Two openings are sequentially arranged along the height direction on one side of the box body relative to the hinge end, with the height of one opening higher than that of the hinge end, and the height of the other opening lower than that of the hinge end; a limiting plate, which can be detachably inserted into either opening. When the limiting plate is switched from one opening to the other, the tray tilts to drive the cryopreservation tube to rotate 180 degrees, thereby ensuring the low-temperature cryoprotectant fluid to evenly fumigate the cryopreservation tube, improving the pre-cooling effect.
