Animal Models

MAS breeds a growing variety of common species and strains at various barrier levels. Most strains of rats and mice are produced in our Maximum Barrier Rodent Breeding Facility, constructed in 2001.
 
Barrier maintained rabbits are also available, with additional capacity currently being developed, due to commence operation in early 2005.
 
Animal agistment and colony maintenance is available for rodents in maximum, high and low barrier conditions. MAS also have facilities for the agistment of sheep, rabbits, guinea pigs, cats, dogs, non-human primates and exotic species such as cane toads.
