The study has stated that heifer replacements, from the date of birth to 18 months, got through transplantation of frozen-defrosted embryos were not inferior to and in many cases superior to the heifers of their age but got through traditional reproduction. Transplant first-calf heifers have a high level of milk productivity which amounts to 7536,10 kilos, with 3,62% of fat and 3,23% of protein. Thus they provide a good selection material for new generation champions to be chosen among them and for being used as mothers of bulls for service

Methods of increasing the efficiency of semen fertilizing capacity in vitro with application of hormonal and biophysical methods of influence, as well as the determination of metabolic criterion of spermium viability were studied in the conditions of the republic of Belarus. Research object was frozen-deiced sperm of cattle. Research results showed that entering of 50 mkg/ml of prostaglandin into capacitation media increased the breaking level on 2,3-3,1%, but at the same time there was the decreasing of embryo output at the pre-implantation stages. Increasing of estrophan concentration in media for capacitation up to 100 mkg/ml, and its addition into media for fertilization made it possible to increase the embryo output at the stage of morula-blastocyte up to 1,6-18,5%. Application of 8mg/ml of caffeine as a capacitation agent for the preparation of cattle sperm for fertilization in vitro made it possible to obtain embryo output of 16,7% with breaking level of 25,9%. Influence of directed polarized light on semen after its maturation was more efficient in comparison with the influence on it just after swim-up procedure; the output of pre-implantation embryos was 16,7% against 12,9%. Application of laser radiation made it possible to get 14,7 % of morula-blastocytes. Intensity of sperm breath (0,41-0,63 tg), intensity of lipid peroxidation (0,88-0,97 conditional units /10E6 cells), intracellular content of adenosine triphosphate (0,97-1,60 Nm/10E6 cells) and membrane potential (33-35 uV) in the conditions of matured in vitro oocyte made it possible to get 16,4-17,3% of pre-implantation embryos with the breaking level of 39,8-42,3%

Efficiency of cultivation of cow preimplantation embryos and support of pluripotent properties in different nutritive media was analyzed; a method of getting early embryos in vitro for the genetically engineered purposes was developed in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. Oocyte separation was realized in 3; 3-6; 6-9; and 9-12 hours after ovariectomy for the studying of the influence of storage period of ovaries on the output qualitative embryos. Oocyte separation was realized by bisection with adding of 1% of fetal cattle serum, 10 units/ml of gentamicin and 1 unit/ml of heparin. Oocyte-cumulus complexes maturing took place in CO2-bath with 5% of CO2 in atmosphere of maximum humidity and temperature of 38 deg C in TS-199 (Sigma) media with entering of 25 mM/l of buffer Hepes, 10 unit/ml of gentamicin and biologically active substance (20 % of fetal calf serum, 10 mg/ml of bovine serum albumin and 5 % of estrous cow serum with 10 mg/ml of bovine serum albumin). Research result showed that application of 10 mg/ml of bovine serum albumin into TS-199 media made it possible to increase the yield of cattle embryos at the preimplantation stages in vitro conditions on 19,1%, as well as to increase the fetal calf serum in quantity 15% to the nutritive media volume up to 16,0 %. Application of sodium pyruvate and calcium lactate in the process of cultivation of early cattle embryos obtained in vitro conditions made it possible to increase the yield of preimplantation embryos on 5,4 %. Specifically, the level of transformation of morulas into blastocysts was 44,4 %
