The Orange Advantage®

MPTI uses the goodness of plants to protect sperm in it's most vulnerable state. Sperm in GameteGuard® extender is protected the entire time it is outside the body and while it goes through the unnatural process of cryopreservation. Healthy sperm cells mean that the dose of sperm is more effective.

GameteGuard® is produced from plant extracts that are skillfully blended to protect the sperm
 cell membrane and counteract harmful oxidants.



The Orange AdvantageTM is what GameteGuard® brings to the table:

  • Protection of cells during cryopreservation
  • Improved post-thaw sperm health
  • Protection of sperm cell DNA
  • Increased pregnancy rates
  • Enhanced uterine health

GameteGuard® is a CSS approved, all natural, patented technology.

How It Works!

It's a classic extender... improved! GameteGuard® strengthens membranes and protects against oxidants. When sperm are damaged, a free radical reaction destroys sperm cell integrity, leading to reproductive failure.
By protecting sperm, pregnancy and full-term delivery issues can be reduced, improving breeding outcomes.

Using GameteGuard® straws is easy.
When thawing straws made with GameteGuard® extenders, use proper thawing techniques:

1)
Keep straws fully below the liquid nitrogen frost line at all times
2) When transferring to thaw bath move quickly and smoothly from nitrogen to the bath (37°C)
3) Allow straws to warm for 30-45 seconds in bath
4) Remove straws , dry thoroughly and protect from light exposure before cutting and using

“Until a man duplicates a blade of grass, nature can laugh at his so-called scientific knowledge. Remedies from chemicals will never stand in favor compared with the products of nature, the living cell of the plant, and the final result of the rays of the sun, the mother of all life.”
