New JAX® Mice strains
We are a worldwide distributor of and repository for thousands of mouse models. Our collection of JAX® Mice strains is increasing by more than 600 new mouse models annually. New models being developed for distribution are listed as "Strains Awaiting Transfer from the Donor" and "Strains Under Development— Now Accepting Orders." These and newly available strains may be found by searching the JAX® Mice Database or through the links below.
Strains awaiting transfer from the donor to our facility
We import strains from researchers and facilities worldwide. Once we start the process of acquiring a strain, prospective customers may start registering interest in it.
Strain in progress
Strains with the In Progress designation are on our campus and being established. We will be accepting orders for these strains shortly and will provide an estimated distribution date on the strain datasheets at that time. When this occurs, those who register interest will receive notification including the estimated distribution date.

Strains under development— now accepting orders
The strain development process (i.e., importation, rederivation, and colony expansion) usually takes 6 to 8 months. Learn more about the strain development timeline.
Once a strain arrives at our facility, its "Estimated available for distribution" date is posted within the "Purchasing information" tab on its strain datasheet and may be updated if necessary.
