Welfare Issues of Genetically Modified Animals [PDF]
Genetically engineered animals have opened new frontiers in the study of physiology and disease processes. Mutant animals offer more accurate disease models and increased precision for pathogenesis and treatment studies. Their use offers hope for improved therapy to patients with conditions that currently have poor or ineffective treatments.

The effects of tail biopsy for genotyping on behavioral responses to nociceptive stimuli. [PDF]
Removal of a small segment of tail at weaning is a common method used to obtain tissue for the isolation of genomic DNA to identify genetically modified mice.

Simple Genome Editing of Rodent Intact Embryos by Electroporation. [PDF]
The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated (Cas) system is a powerful tool for genome editing in animals. Recently, new technology has been developed to genetically modify animals without using highly skilled ...

In vivo gene delivery involves direct injection of nucleic acids (NAs) into tissues, organs, or tail-veins. It has been recognized as a useful tool for evaluating the function of a gene of interest (GOI), creating models for human disease and basic ...

Genetically Modified Rabbits for Cardiovascular Research
Rabbits are one of the most used experimental animals for investigating the mechanisms of human cardiovascular disease and lipid metabolism because they are phylogenetically closer to human than rodents (mice and rats).

Are good ideas enough?: The impact of socio-economic and regulatory factors on GMO commercialisation
In recent years scientific literature has seen an increase in publications describing new transgenic applications. Although technically-sound, these promising developments might not necessarily translate into products available to the consumer.

Efficient In Vivo Introduction of Point Mutations Using ssODN and a Co-CRISPR Approach
Background The generation of point mutations is a major tool for evaluating the roles of specific nucleotides or amino acids within the regulatory or functional landscape. However, examination of these mutations in vivo requires the generation of animals
