Start of NCI BALB/cAnN colony from NIH
NCI has received a start of BALB/cAnN from NIH that we will be expanding. This
start has been genetically tested and compared to the existing colony
and there were no differences found. This start will replace the current
BALB/cAnNCr colony that is located at Frederick, Maryland in building
1032. This turnover will take between 6 months and a year. Once the 1032
colony has been established and breeding we will, based on production
and aggressiveness, determine whether all colonies will be replaced.
