WHAT WE OFFER
OUR SERVICES
Colony management software
Software suitable for control of your colony simplifies your work, makes your day more efficient and saves money.
Breeding plans
Do you need 10 homozygous females weekly or do you need four groups of animals of the same age at a particular date? We can establish a breeding plan for you.
Genetic screening
Establishing several allele combinations in one reaction increases efficiency and lowers the risk of registering the wrong data.
Trouble shooting
Even in the best of times, breeding may not perform to expectations, genetic screening show unexpected haplotypes or an infection in the colony put a stop on current activities.
SOP implementation
Standard operating procedures (SOP) make daily chores more predicatable and easier to plan. We can help you implement new SOPs or take a critical look at the current ones.
Genetic modifications
With the advent of CRISPR/Cas9 technology genetic modifications can be achieved quicker. Still, pronuclear injections and homologous recombination are valuable techniques worth looking into for your project.
