Tuberculosis Mouse Model Resouce
Inbred strains have been used extensively to research the virulence mechanisms, pathology, and immune response associated with tuberculosis (TB) infections. Mouse inbred strains present with a wide spectrum of susceptibility/resistance to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. Our most popular mouse models are readily available in the quantities you need to support your biomedical research. JAX® Mice are supported by our extensive online resources, knowledgeable technical support team and world-renowned research staff.
