FAQs
How Does the Equine Semen Shipping Kit Maintain Temperature Control?
The Equine Express II Cooled Semen & Embryo Transport System uses a carefully designed cooling mechanism and advanced insulation materials to maintain the overall temperature. The Equine Express II transport system uses a foam coolant pack placed inside the container. The insulation materials then work to minimize heat exchange and keep the semen or embryos enclosed at a stable temperature throughout transport.
How Long Can the Equine Express II Cooled Semen & Embryo Universal Transport System Maintain Cooling?
The Equine Express II Cooled Semen & Embryo Universal Transport System can typically maintain cooling for 48 to 72 hours, depending on the environmental conditions and the transport system's specific setup. For the best results, monitor the temperature periodically during transit to see if the equine embryo transfer kit is still cooling the reproductive materials effectively. Do not open the box to check, as it breaks the seal and compromises the cooling process, which is vital for semen or embryo viability. Instead use a device that lets you check the temperature from the outside.
Is Equine Express II Cooled Semen & Embryo Universal Transport System USDA or APHIS Approved?
The Equine Express II Cooled Semen & Embryo Universal Transport System has USDA and APHIS approval. It is one of the only USDA and APHIS containers approved for international shipping and is university-tested for consistent quality assurance.
What Does the Equine Express II Cooled Semen & Embryo Universal Transport System Include?
The Equine Express II Cooled Semen & Embryo Universal Transport System consists of the following components:
- Insulated transport container: This durable container maintains optimal temperatures for cooled semen and embryos.
- Coolant pack: A coolant pack regulates the temperature and keeps it at the necessary environment for the reproductive materials inside the kit.
- User instructions: Each kit includes instructions to help users load and seal the containers correctly for safe shipping.
How Should I Prepare the Equine Express II Cooled Semen & Embryo Universal Transport System Before Shipping?
To prepare the Equine Express II:
- Freeze the foam coolant pack before use according to manufacturer instructions.
- Make sure you properly place the syringes or 50ml tubes into the molded cutouts to secure them during transport.
- Seal the container tightly and close the cardboard lid.
