Abstract
In the preferred embodiment, bovine semen is mixed with a 'suitable solution' to form an insemination medium which is injected into the reproductive organs of a female bovine to flood the uterine horns in a nonsurgical AI procedure. The invention includes an AI instrument having a disposable, single use pipette that may be used with this nonsurgical procedure. The AI instrument does not include a balloon and is referred to as 'catheter free'. Preferably, the uterine horns are flooded concurrently, but in the alternative, they may be flooded sequentially.
