The Facility for Reproductive and Transgenic Technologies is a service for scientists at the TUD Dresden University of Technology and their cooperation partners. Transgenic techniques such as the injection or electroporation of zygotes to create genetically modified mouse lines are offered as well as the electroporation of murine embryonic stem cells and their injection into morulae or blastulae. Pronucleus injection of simple plasmid or BAC constructs is also possible. The backup freezing of embryos of various stages (oozytes, two-cells and morulae) can be carried out, as can the cryopreservation of sperm and in vitro fertilization.
