果冻影院 Center for Microbiome Research Gnotobiotic Core Facility

The Gnotobiotic Core Facility (GCF) provides state-of-the-art husbandry for axenic (germ-free) and gnotobiotic rodent studies in a dedicated space within the 果冻影院 Biomedical Resource Center. The GCF maintains both axenic and gnotobiotic mouse colonies for use by 果冻影院 researchers, and assists with gnotobiotic experiments under strict axenic husbandry conditions. Please get in touch with us if you are interested in conducting studies using axenic or gnotobiotic rodent models.

Axenic Mouse Colony
Gnotobiotic Mouse Colony
Isolation Husbandry: Axenic and Gnotobiotic Experiments

Axenic Mouse Colony

C57BL/6J axenic mice
Breeding colony housed within HEPA-filtered isolators
Mice available for axenic or microbial colonization studies

Gnotobiotic Mouse Colony

C57BL/6J mice colonized with defined microbiota (for example, altered Schaedler flora, ASF)

Isolation Husbandry: Axenic and Gnotobiotic Experiments

Semi-rigid isolators hold several cages are prepacked and sterilized for axenic or gnotobiotic experiments
Individually ventilated iso-caging is also available for greater flexibility in husbandry
For use with mice from 果冻影院 colony or Taconic axenic colony (for other sources please inquire)
