Generation of Animal Models

We are specialized in generating transgenic mice and rats with the traditional method of pronuclear microinjection, as well as using lentiviral vectors. LAM assures SPF (Specific Pathogen Free) status of generated transgenic animals. Additionally we offer the  cryopreservation, embriotransfer and genotyping  service.

Genotyping

LAM offers the genotyping service. You should deliver to us tail/ear tissue fragments, PCR primers and reaction condition.

In vitro fertilization

In vitro fertilization is a method used for recovery of mice line from cryopreserved sperm . It may also be used as a method to overcome male fertility problems.
