The Mouse Biology Program (MBP) offers various documents to support researchers, collaborators, and institutions working with our mouse models and services. Whether you need compliance information, technical protocols, or resource documentation, our team can provide the necessary materials to ensure your research runs smoothly and meets regulatory standards.

Available Documents

1. Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs)
Required for the transfer of mouse strains and related materials between institutions. These agreements ensure proper handling, use, and compliance.

2. Animal Care and Use Protocols
Documents detailing the care, welfare, and experimental procedures approved by the UC Davis Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC). These protocols are essential for meeting ethical standards in animal research.

3. Health Reports
Comprehensive health status reports for mouse colonies, including pathogen surveillance and specific health monitoring results. These reports confirm the pathogen-free status of the mice before transfer.

4. Genetic Verification Reports
Genotyping results that confirm the genetic integrity of mouse models, including information on specific gene modifications and background strains.

5. Phenotyping Data Reports
Detailed data sets and analysis summaries for phenotyping results cover behavioral, metabolic, or cardiovascular assessments.

6. Cryopreservation and Recovery Protocols
Protocols outlining the procedures for cryopreserving embryos or sperm and subsequent recovery steps. These documents support the proper handling and resuscitation of cryopreserved materials.

7. Reproductive Services Protocols
Guidelines for reproductive technologies, including embryo transfer and in vitro fertilization (IVF). These documents provide detailed instructions and expectations for successful outcomes.

8. Breeding and Colony Management Plans
Custom breeding strategies and colony management plans tailored to your research objectives. These plans help streamline colony growth and maintain genetic accuracy.

9. Import/Export Documentation
Essential documents for importing or exporting mouse strains, including health certificates, permits, and customs clearance papers.

10. User Guides and Technical Protocols
User manuals and technical guides for specialized equipment, procedures, and testing platforms used in MBP services, ensuring proper use and reliable results.
