Rederivation of Mouse Strains

The core personnel can perform embryo transfers to facilitate the introduction of mouse strains into the Barrier Facility.  Personnel will recover embryos from timed matings set up by the investigator.  The embryos will be transferred at the one-cell or blastocyst stage to pseudo-pregnant recipients maintained within the Barrier Facility.  Pups from the implanted dams will be delivered to the investigators after weaning.  DERC investigators are advised to make use of a LARC core facility that has been established specifically for this purpose.
