Trans Ova says Australian beef and dairy producers will benefit from the advanced IVF technologies developed by the US-based company.
“Australia presents an exciting opportunity for growth,” Trans Ova chief operating officer Katie Jauert Jess said.
“Producers here already recognise the value of advanced reproductive technologies, and we’re thrilled to deliver our industry-leading IVF solutions to support their success.”
Since the beginning of the year, Trans Ova has been working closely with the team at Total Livestock Genetics to integrate its proven systems and rigorous protocols into the Camperdown facility.
Several members of the TLG team have completed extensive hands-on training in the United States, ensuring the seamless delivery of services that meet Trans Ova’s quality standards.
Upon passing all quality control checks, the new lab has already started creating IVF embryos for clients commercially.
“We are pleased that Genetics Australia will be collaborating to bring the Trans Ova brand and technology to Australia,” Genetics Australia chief executive officer Anthony Shelly said.
“In our business we strive to do what is best for our clients and the Trans Ova team has similar values.
“Having access to the technologies of Trans Ova, which is one of the best if not the best company doing IVF in the world, will be very rewarding for our clients.”
Trans Ova is internationally recognised for its animal husbandry and reproductive expertise. The company operates through an integrated network of regional centres, satellite locations, and on-farm services.
Trans Ova expects to expand further into Australia in the future.
