The semen freezing
laboratory is equipped with the state of the art facilities to produce and
store quality frozen semen. The laboratory adopts all the procedures for semen
collection, processing, evaluation, freezing, and storage are followed as per
the guidelines issued by Central Monitoring Unit, Govt. of India. Presently,
