  • Sustained release composition
    Publication number: 20190343111
    Abstract: The present invention relates to sustained release compositions, and in particular a sustained release composition comprising spermatozoa embedded in a matrix, such as a polymeric matrix. By having at least two sections with distinct dissolution rate, the matrix will ensure that spermatozoa are released for a prolonged period of time and thus making the time of insemination relative to ovulation less critical. Further, the present invention also relates to a method for preparing the sustained release composition, container comprising the sustained release composition and use of the sustained release composition in the breeding of animals.

  • Method for cryopreservation of biological material
    Patent number: 10206387
    Abstract: A method for cryopreservation of biological material where a sample of a biological material is inserted into a packaging having two substantially parallel walls spaced from 2.5 mm apart or less, the walls connected to each other along a substantially part of their periphery and including a plurality of internal ridges for directing the flow of material through the packaging. After the material is evenly distributed in the package, the material is frozen for cryopreservation of biological material.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 24, 2015
    Date of Patent: February 19, 2019
    Assignee: Cryogenetics AS
    Inventor: Elisabeth Kommisrud
  • Methods for the preparation of hydrogels
    Patent number: 10041059
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved method for preparing hydrogels, such as alginate hydrogels. The hydrogels of the present invention is in particular useful for immobilization and preservation of biological material, such as cellular material, e.g. spermatozoa.
