5021 - Autoclavable Mouse Breeder Diet
Product SheetDescription
Autoclavable Mouse Breeder Diet is formulated using managed formulation, delivering Constant Nutrition®. This is paired with the selection of highest quality ingredients to assure minimal inherent biological variation in long-term studies. It is fortified with extra nutrients to compensate for nutrient losses during autoclaving and ensure nutritional adequacy. It is recommended for the life-cycle feeding of high reproducing mice. Where postpartum breeding is employed, the mice require high energy to fulfill their metabolic needs for sustaining gestation and lactation simultaneously. This product is coated with a small amount of silicon dioxide to reduce clumping during the autoclaving process.
