Types of Strain Submissions
If the strain you are submitting is pre-authorized, you will be asked
on the application form to indicate which Organization has arranged with the
MMRRC to acquire your strain. Such submissions will be verified
as pre-authorized by the sponsoring institution. (If no matching authorization
is found, the submission will be processed as a standard, reviewed submission.)
For either type of submission, the donor is responsible for the costs to
prepare and ship mice to the designated MMRRC facility.
| Pre-Authorized |
Pre-authorized Submission
is for use by researchers who have one or more strains that have
been pre-approved for transfer to the MMRRC repository, either
by their NIH Program Officer or under a contractual agreement
with the MMRRC. The donor will be asked to identify the sponsoring institution
or contract. |
| All Others |
Other submissions will be asked whether the donor
has funding available to subsidize the costs of repositing the strain
for subsequent redistribution. Donors with funding to subsidize the
establishment of their strain may specify a preferred MMRRC facility
for the maintenance of their strain. Strains submissions without funding
support will be fully reviewed by the MMRRC's Strain Acquisition Review
board to determine whether the strain has sufficient value to be preserved
using the MMRRC's funding. |
