1.Rectal Probe: Core Tool for Reproduction Management
Applications: - Pregnancy diagnosis in cows (from 18 days) – Monitoring ovarian development and uterine structures – Estrus detection and evaluation before artificial insemination
Features & Advantages: - High-frequency linear array with clear imaging – Inserted rectally, with strong penetration depth – Accurately identifies uterine horns, embryos, corpus luteum, and other structures – The first-choice tool for reproduction management in large-scale farms
Recommended Users: Professional veterinarians, farm reproduction managers, and precision breeding technicians.
2.Convex Probe: First Choice for Quick and Portable Checkups
Applications: - External abdominal ultrasound examinations – Late pregnancy evaluation – Routine diagnosis or clinical use in farms
Features & Advantages: - Non-rectal operation, more convenient external scanning – Wide imaging field, suitable for observing fetal development – Ideal for beginners or field veterinarians where rectal use is inconvenient – Works flexibly with portable ultrasound machines
Recommended Users: Local veterinarians, mobile service providers, and small to medium-sized farms.
3.Backfat and Longissimus Dorsi Muscle Probe: A Key Tool for Beef Cattle Evaluation
Applications: - Measuring backfat thickness in beef cattle – Assessing longissimus dorsi muscle area – Evaluating fattening results and supporting market decisions
Features & Advantages: - Designed for imaging subcutaneous fat and muscle layers – Provides quantitative analysis of body condition, suitable for breeding selection and feedlot monitoring – Paired with analysis software to generate numerical reports, ideal for breeding and research
Recommended Users: Breeding organizations, feedlots, and livestock research institutes.
4.Ovum Pick-Up (OPU) Probe: Specialized for Embryo Engineering
Applications: - Ovum pick-up from elite donor cows (OPU) – Follicle monitoring and puncture guidance – Pre-transfer structural evaluation for embryo transplantation
Features & Advantages: - High-frequency, small-sized probe for precise positioning – Equipped with puncture guide for real-time aspiration – Essential equipment for embryo transfer, superovulation, and in-vitro fertilization (IVF) projects
Recommended Users: Embryo engineering labs, genetic breeding companies, and cattle reproduction service providers.
