Pre-conditioned JAX® Mice

Mice aged or pre-conditioned to provide study-ready models for your research

Diet-induced obesity (DIO) models

Standard DIO mice, C57BL/6J (000664) males fed a high fat (60 kcal%) diet from six weeks old, are readily available up to 26 weeks of age. We can adapt our DIO protocol for other strains (either sex) and/or diets upon request.

STZ-induced diabetes models

C57BL/6J males with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes may be shipped at 8-10 days post injection. We can adapt or modify our protocols to other strains and sexes upon request.

Aged JAX® Mice

We can age JAX® Mice to display one or more of a variety of disease phenotypes, such as Alzheimer's, alopecia, cancer, diet-induced obesity (DIO), and diabetes.

Alopecia areata model

Using techniques developed by our scientists, we offer a mouse model of induced alopecia areata in C3H/HeJ (000659) mice, available at 20 or more weeks of age.

Timed pregnant mice

Guaranteed mated (gestational day 0-10) or guaranteed pregnant (gestational day 11-15) mice shipped when you need them.

Surgically modified JAX® Mice

Our highly skilled and expert surgeons can perform over 60 standard or custom surgeries, from adrenalectomies to vasectomies.
