    DBA/1JBomTac
  • Suitable general-purpose research model for immunology and inflammation research
  • Widely used as a model of autoimmunity, especially collagen-induced arthritis
  • High incidence of mammary tumors

Origin:

The DBA inbred model was developed by Dr. C. C. Little of the Jackson Laboratory in 1909. The DBA/1 substrain was generated in 1929. M&B A/S (now Taconic Europe) received stock from Jackson Laboratory in 1993. The mice were derived by embryo transfer in 2005 at Taconic US.

Taconic cannot routinely accept orders by weight for this model due to colony size. Please inquire for options if weight is critical for your experiment.

n = 250 per sex at MPF health standard from all global colonies.
High and Low represent mean +/- 2 standard deviations.
Based on sample size the charts above represent ~90% of the population.
All growth curves represent animals housed in our barriers, at our standard density and fed NIH31-M diet. Variations at customer facilities will alter expected growth curves.
Growth charts are provided only as a guide.
