The resources of the MGRF are available to users both off-site and on- site. Off-site users may obtain live mice, embryos, sperm, or nucleic acids from mouse strains of their choice via ORNL’s Mutant Mouse Database (http://bio.lsd.ornl.gov/mouse/) for a cost-recovery fee.

• Off-site users may also request collaborations or fee- for- service arrangements to have ORNL staff perform genetics experiments, including customized breeding, specific genetic alterations using a variety of molecular or whole-organism techniques, exposure-response testing, or the application of specific technologies such as DNA microarray analysis or microCT scanning.
• Long-term collaborations for the utilization of the facility capacity and for the adaptation of the space to meet specific needs can be arranged.
• Users who want to come to ORNL to perform their own experiments with assistance from ORNL staff should feel free to discuss their ideas with MGRF staff using the contact information below.
• General information about access to ORNL User Facilities is available through ORNL’s Technology Transfer and Economic Development web site (www.ornl.gov/adm/tted/UserFacilities.htm).
