Strain Transfer Methods
The MMRRC facilities are able to accept your strain as
live mice or as cryopreserved material.
-
Live mice:
Transfer of live mice to the MMRRC is always acceptable.
For optimal efficiency, we recommend submitting a minimum of
10 females and 6 males of the strain. Mice should be suitable age
for breeding.
-
Cryopreserved material:
The MMRRC facilities also are able to accept previously cryopreserved
embryos and spermatozoa; DI must coordinate with the
importing facility for transfers using cryopreserved
material. Please note that there is always
risk of failure to resuscitate your strain if only cryopreserved
material is submitted. Therefore, we cannot assure recoverability
until we successfully resuscitate mice from your cryopreserved
materials.
If your strain is accepted into the MMRRC, the
designated facility will work with you to transfer your strain
to the facility.
