Humanized mice up to 240 kb
Reduced project timelines and costs with OzBIG
Ozgene offers a service called OzBIG for robust creation of large, gene-targeted replacement or safe harbor targeted models. This system enables routine generation of humanized mice with very large (20 to 240 kb) genomic replacements or insertions. Ozgene are pleased to announce that they are working in partnership with Gen H in supporting our OzBIG capabilities. Read more here!
What is goGermline™?
goGermline is a fast and efficient way to generate genetically modified knockout, knock-in and targeted transgenic mice. goGermline eliminates competition with ‘host’ embryos, resulting in 100% embryonic stem (ES) cell-derived offspring with significant benefits to project timelines and animal welfare. To experience the goGermline benefits first-hand, enquire about a mouse project with us or order goGermline embryos to trial them in your facility.
How long does it take to generate mouse models?
