Mouse Models Available
Mouse Models Available The International Microbiome Centre breeds mice under germ-free conditions which can be requested and delivered for a fee. Take a look below at the current mouse models available. Whether or not your find what you’re looking for, or even if you have questions about a new or existing germ-free or gnotobiotic mouse […]
New Paper: Innate Responses to Gut Microbiota; Critical Assessment of the Necessary Experimental Controls
Congratulations to our Director and Platform 1 Lead Dr. Kathy McCoy on this recent publication! Focusing on the recent findings (since 2017) regarding the commensal bacteria of the mouse intestinal tract, Dr. McCoy and Dr. Ohland discuss the importance and advances of what experimental controls are required to reliably determine how the microbiota influences the […]
Mouse Tissue Biobank
Mouse Tissue Biobank Dig into the our repository of mouse tissues collected from gnotobiotic and germ-free mice. Find samples prepared for experiments such as RNA-extraction. We also have a biobank of samples prepared specifically for histological observations here. This biobank keeps expanding as new tissues are collected from diverse mouse models. Whether or not you […]
