Summary: Present demographic explosion on the world demand maximum activity of the recourses which are essential for human continuation. Animal's products in this frame are notable part of human's being. Putting the present animal's resources on the sufficient level demand to develop adequate (corresponding) technologies based on livestocks improvement. Recent degree of animal science is not sufficiently for the development such production which can be able to conduct present and future demographic growth. Therefore, is necessary to enter in such scientific spheres as genetics engineering and preservation acquired genetic potential. One of the best way to enter in to this spheres is embryo transfer use because it is the first step for use genetic engineering procedures and for forming bank of genes ( on the base to use cryo biologic methods). The proposed project's activity is based on the own results from embryo transfer and cryo biology gotten from YU USA project BIOTECNICAL METHODS INTENSIFICATION OF SHEEP PRODUCTION - EMBRIOTRANSFER IN THE SHEEP.

Keywords: embryo transfer, criobiological methods, reproduction, embryos, frozen embryos, progesterone, synchronization, superovulation

Research goals: The objective of this research is intention to create the base to involve high technologies into livestock's improvement and protection endanger races of domestic animals by use and develop embryo transfer. The results are continuity research activity based on the scientific cooperation with USDA Institute for animal reproduction Beltsville Maryland which was in frame YU-US scientific project "BIOTECNICAL METHODS INTENSIFICATION OF SHEEP PRODUCTION - EMBRIOTRANSFER IN THE SHEEP. In the frame of project activity is successful transplantation and freezing sheep's embryos (First, in Republic Croatia and former Yugoslavia). As part of project activity is research in endocrinology from this, we got scientific argument about seasonal anestria duration in Republic Croatia.
