Biography

Cryogenetics offers services and technology for an effective fish reproduction. Our main service has traditionally been the cryopreservation of fish milt. Cryopreservation is a powerful tool for preservation of genetic diversity in wild species and as an integral part of both commercial aquaculture and other fish breeding programs. In addition to cryopreservation and storage services the company also offers several other products and services helping to secure more effective fish reproduction. These include technology for fresh storage of milt, milt quality evaluation and gender testing of fingerlings. Cryogenetics is the sole provider of unique technology developed in-house. Cryogenetics’ technology has both the capacity and efficiency needed for seamless integration of an unique cryopreservation technology on an industrial scale for conservation or breeding operations. This is a result of a focused R&D, applied to these challenges, for over a decade.
