Struthers, Inc. Announces Birth of Pigs From Non-Surgically Transplanted Porcine Embryos


CHARLESTON, S.C.--(BW HealthWire)--Sept. 5, 2000--Struthers, Inc. (OTC BB: STRU) and its subsidiary, Elite Visions, Inc., world leaders in animal reproductive biotechnology, are pleased to announce the birth of seven healthy piglets from non-surgically implanted embryos using the Company's proprietary Gourley Scope(TM) technology.

The seven embryos in different stages of development were surgically removed from a host sow utilizing the Company's mobile operating trailer. The embryos were "washed" virtually free of pathogens (disease) and implanted into a non-anesthetized sow recipient at the Company's Spencer, IA research farm facility.

The research team led by Dr. Dennis Gourley, DVM performed the non-surgical implementation of the embryos in a farm setting similar to what would be expected at any swine facility.

Struthers, Inc.'s scientific breakthrough is the world's first porcine offspring to be born using this unique proprietary technology. Further ongoing product development of non-surgical embryo transfers is currently being performed by the Company on sheep, deer as well as swine. The Company believes that this non-surgical embryo implementation process will be significantly more effective than using surgical techniques and has worldwide commercial application.

Additional applications of the Gourley Scope(TM) also involve lowering the dose of semen needed for maximum conception in artificial insemination. The Gourley Scope(TM) received worldwide recognition and biotechnology awards when unveiled at the World Pork Expo2000. The Scope, complete with light source and transmitter, allows the technician and veterinarian to view in real-time the reproductive tract of the animal and to implant the semen or embryos in the most effective position for maximum conception.

These reproductive biotechnology techniques, developed by Struthers, Inc., offer producers worldwide the opportunity to change the genetics of their herds in one generation as compared to the industry standard of taking seven to eight years to change porcine genetics.
