This is the same kind of campaign run against Qualcomm by competitors trying to stall the company.

gensel.com Came across this interesting NR regarding sperm sexing technology that MTC has agreed to support in Guelph, Ontario (Guelph is Canada's premier veterinarian research center). Apparently, the research company, Gensel, has a sperm sexer that is operating at over 90% accuracy rates. It seems that MTC is interested in the version for cattle. Presumably, dairy farmers in particular would benefit from any ability to predetermine sex ratios for their herds. Does anyone have any idea of what the market is for pre-sexed sperm? I have a feeling it could become as important as artificial insemination was when that first became established.
