Animal Production Program

The National Cancer Institute Animal Production Program is administered by the Biological Testing Branch and supplies animals to the following:

  • Researchers at NCI-Frederick
  • NIH on-campus laboratories
  • NIH/NCI funded research contracts
  • NIH/NCI funded grantees
  • Other government agencies
  • Other research laboratories of the strains not available commercially

To meet the above needs, animal production contracts plus quality control contracts are used. The animal production contracts are used to propagate the NIH sublines of the strains. Many of the strains produced are not available commercially and the NCI program is the sole source of several lines. Click here for ordering and pricing information.
