At each age, 40 mice of each sex were randomly selected from the colony, weighed, returned to the colony and excluded from further measurements. The mice were fed a diet containing 6% fat (LabDiet® 5K52/5K67) from weaning at 3 weeks of age until 8 weeks of age.
Mean values for guidance only. Growth curves may vary slightly from room to room.
