The book focuses on describing the conventional and state-of-the-art methods of sperm sexing. Characterization of the animal spermatozoa is one of the major areas for the development of novel methods of sperm sexing, and this book provides an enhanced description of this research area. A separate chapter is devoted to discussing the commercially available sperm sexing based on fluorescent-activated cell sorting.

The possibility of sperm sexing by immunological methods discussed in this book to an expanded level. Recent advances in sperm sexing methods, based on microfluidics, nanoparticles, and genetic engineering, were discussed in this book. This book provides insight into the various cryopreservation methods of semen which is very crucial for the storage and transport of sexed semen. Ethical issues raised by animal welfare societies and the common public are discussed in this book. Patent issues and commercial aspects of sperm sexing are also discussed in this book.
