Cryopreserved. Ready for recovery. Please refer to pricing and supply notes for further information.

Supply Notes

Cryorecovery - Standard. At least two mice that carry the mutation (if it is a mutant strain) will be provided. The total number of animals provided, their gender and genotype will vary. Please inquire if larger numbers of animals with specific genotypes and genders are needed. IMPORTANT NOTE: The genotypes of the animals provided may not reflect the mating scheme utilized by The Jackson Laboratory prior to cryopreservation, or that discussed in the strain description. Please inquire for possible genotypes for this specific strain. Animals typically ship within 13 to 16 weeks from your order. If a second cryorecovery is needed in order to provide the minimum number of animals, animals will typically ship within 25 weeks. Cryorecovery to establish a Dedicated Supply for greater quantities of mice. One to two pairs will be recovered to establish a Dedicated Supply of mice. Price by quotation. For more information on Dedicated Supply, please contact JAX® Services, Tel: 1-800-422-6423 or 1-207-288-5845. This strain is included in the Induced Mutant Resource Colony collection. Genomic DNA is available for this strain from the Mouse DNA Resource.

The Jackson Laboratory's Genotype Promise

The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX^® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX^® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX^® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project.
