OvuGel is an advanced swine reproductive technology that is administered via a non-injectable, fast and easy vaginal delivery system. OvuGel creates predictability in ovulation of your sow herd, reducing time and labor of farm staff by having to administer only one injection.
“With the use of this technology, our most capable breeding technicians can focus, in a narrower window of time, and more effectively breed a larger number of sows.”
Plan for and staff around days you know you’ll be busy, so your most experience staff can be on site.
Reduce both semen and labor cost with a single one-time dose, instead of multiple.
Give your farm staff back the most valuable gift of all — time.
OvuGel contains triptorelin acetate, a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist, which mimics the natural release of GnRH by the hypothalamus. This systemic bolus of synthetic GnRH initiates luteinizing hormone (LH) release from the pituitary, which acts upon the ovary to stimulate ovulation. By controlling precisely when LH release occurs, the time of ovulation is more predictable, which provides confidence you can inseminate with only one dose of quality semen.
“By using OvuGel, it cuts our time here on weekends by two hours per day… So we can get back to our families and have a ‘normal’ life.”
