Overview
This document was written by Dr. D. Baker,(DLAM, School of Vet. Med., LSU) and subsequently reformatted, modified (original document also gave references to diseases of rabbits) and webbed for this site by Gary Brown. This has been put together for all the transgenic or other mouse researchers out there who have had to explain why colony infections are not just bad for the welfare of the animals concerned, but may invalidate the ongoing studies as well.
