Breeding Services
Rodent
breeding colonies are managed by trained and experienced
personnel and include mating (in consultation with investigator),
weaning, record keeping, sampling for DNA analysis (as determined
by the investigator), marking of animals for identification,
analysis of breeding problems (e.g. related to genotype),
and euthanasia of retired breeders and unwanted animals
(as determined by DNA analysis). Breeding colonies are housed
in designated animal rooms without investigator access.
The investigator receives weekly reports that include breeding
performance, number of litters born, number of animals weaned,
and the number and age of stock animals available for experiments.
Animals for experiments are relocated to the investigator's
experimental animal housing room.
Pricing
All aspects of this service will be charged on an actual
time basis. Technician time is currently $20.00 per hour.
Breeding colonies differ widely due to genetic differences
(breeding systems, reproductive performance etc.) and due
to research requirements.
