The Colony Management Team
We provide customized, full-service colony management. Your research is personal to us and we thank you for your dedication to discovering new cures and therapies for all.
Dedicated Project Management
Every client is assigned a dedicated team member, who is their single point of contact and directs the work of the project technicians and staff.
Priority Scheduling
Clients continuing their projects with Biomere receive priority on our study schedule resulting in expedited starts for studies and more rapid generation of samples and data.
Data Management & Reporting
Biomere uses SoftMouse software to manage and track mouse colonies ensuring accurate breeding, genotyping and colony development records. Clients received custom inventory reports with detailed information including genotypes, age, gender, lineage etc. Custom reports are also available upon client requests.
Study-Ready Cohorts
Regardless of the size of your colony, we breed to your specifications within your timeline. Upon completion of your project, we will transfer your models in-house for a Biomere study or ship to the domestic or international location of choice.
The Biomere animal care teams can administer custom or specialized diets, water, supplements, medications and enrichment methods to ensure optimal animal health and study-ready animals.
Flexible Housing Options
Biomere offers multiple housing options including maximum exclusion for germ-fee animals, standard exclusion for Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) animals or quarantine facilities that allow specific pathogens. Depending on health status, germ-free and SPF mice are housed in individually ventilated cages (IVCs) while quarantined mice are housed in rigid isolators.
Rigorous Animal Monitoring
Each client colony is well separated from other colonies and occupies one side of the rack to ensure no cross-contamination.
Biomere also offers genotyping services using conventional and real-time PCR methods. Genetic background characterization using SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) panels are also available.
Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART)
The Biomere colony management team has expertise in specific reproductive technologies including rederivation through embryo transfer, in vitro fertilization (IVF), cesarean delivery, and ovary transplantation.
Additional Services
Fostering, timed pregnancies, embryonic and fetal tissue collection, blood, urine and tissue collection are offered as well as additional services catering to client needs as requested.
The Biomere team has experience managing colonies of diverse rodent models, including neonate models, rare disease models, inducible and conditional expression models (Cre-Lox, Tet-Off/On), reporter models, and complex multi-gene and multi-knockout models.
Experience in rat and mouse models from multiple areas of research, including:
Metabolic and liver diseases
Every client is assigned a dedicated team member, who is their single point of contact and directs the work of the project technicians and staff.
Bone diseases
