Add Embryos to Inventory or Transferred Embryos

allows you to add or frozen embryos to inventory to streamline embryo transfer tasks while out on the farm and using the mobile app use the batch import feature to quickly add multiple embryos, such as those harvested from an , or add individual embryos or multiple identical embryos as needed you can also add transferred embryos directly to the transferred embryos docid 8grofcki5s5girvwaustt page using the same batch import process and file you can find this feature under the dairycomp/mydc docid\ t93yu 9puoivxmgypo5g > embryos docid\ t93yu 9puoivxmgypo5g menu the options to add embryos are available from the menu or the embryo management tabs before you add embryos to inventory prior to entering your embryos to inventory, be sure to have all required details verify that the lab report or other listing that accompanied the delivery of your embryos is handy and available for reference note that the following details are required to add embryos to inventory code or donor id, name, or iso id fertilization date frozen date (for frozen embryos) in addition to the required items, other information that is useful when preparing to add embryos includes embryo breed straw or mating details embryo counts embryo requirements for transfer limits the transfer of embryos to those with the highest potential for success embryos must meet the following requirements to qualify for transfer embryo transfers are typically done with 4 to 8 day old embryos in , you can only enter data for embryos that are less than 12 days old ( < 12) as noted in enter completed transfers as soon

your embryos import summary after your embryo data is imported, you can download a list of the embryos that were not included you can use this list to identify and resolve any errors, and if necessary, upload the updated file import transferred embryos in addition to importing embryos to inventory, you can use the same template file to import completed transfers follow the import embryos

8grofcki5s5girvwaustt tab also automatically adds a transfer event to the recipient's for the transferred date you specified add one embryo or multiple embryos with same details select add embryo from the menu bar or the options button complete all required fields and any additional details for the embryo note to add multiple embryos with the same details, use the number of embryos/straws field for embryos and the from straw / to straw fields for frozen embryos will calculate the number of frozen embryos you're adding based on the difference between the straw numbers embryo details the bull
