These mice carry an triethylenemelamine-induced mutation at the Hba locus characterized by microcytosis, erythrocytosis, low blood hemoglobin levels, and a low body weight.

A molecular assay to genotype this strain is not available. We will fulfill your order by providing at least two untested males and two untested females (two pairs). The total number, sex, and genotypes will vary, although typically 8 or more mice are provided. Untested animals typically are available to ship between 10 and 14 weeks from the date of your order. If the first recovery attempt is unsuccessful, a second recovery will be done, extending the overall recovery time to approximately 25 weeks. Progeny testing may be required – If recovered animals do not display a phenotype, progeny testing will be required. This testing involves breeding the recovered animals and assessing the phenotype of the offspring in order to identify animals carrying the mutation of interest. Please note that identified pairs may not reflect the mating scheme utilized by The Jackson Laboratory prior to cryopreservation of the strain. Mating schemes are sometimes modified for successful cryopreservation. We cannot guarantee the reproductive success of mice shipped to your facility. If the mice are lost after the first three days (post-arrival) or do not produce progeny at your facility, a new order and fee will be necessary.
Cryorecovery to establish a Dedicated Supply for greater quantities of mice. Mice recovered can be used to establish a dedicated colony to contractually supply you mice according to your requirements. Price by quotation.
