Animal Husbandry Cryogenic Storage FAQs

How long can semen remain viable in a liquid nitrogen storage dewar?

With proper storage and procedures, straws can be preserved indefinitely. Be sure to minimize exposure during handling and keep LN2 levels stable to protect viability.

What’s the best semen tank size for my herd?

The right artificial insemination equipment will depend on the specifics of your usage. Consider what tank capacity and hold time you need based on your straw volume, refill access and portability requirements. IC Biomedical will be happy to consult with you and recommend the best models.

Do I need a transport container separate from my storage tank?

Yes, dry vapor shippers are the best option for sample protection during transportation. If you need stationary, on-site storage, consider a liquid storage dewar.

How often should I check LN2 levels?

You should complete routine checks at least once a week and refill if your LN2 levels have started to drop. You should also check after heavy usage or a long trip.

What accessories are essential for AI handling?

Your process for artificial animal insemination should consist of a semen tank and compatible accessories, including:

  • Straw organizers like canisters, canes or goblets
  • A reliable thaw bath with a timer
  • Forceps for controlled handling
  • PPE suitable for working with liquid nitrogen (e.g., gloves, aprons, lab coats and face protection)
