Overview Custom Transgenic Services
At ImmunoGenes we have an experience with mouse, rat and rabbits. As of 2021 we have made more than 60 projects of transgenic mice, 12 projects of transgenic rats, and 17 projects of transgenic rabbits.
The Custom Transgenic Services (CTS) team consists of Dr. Bender along with a group of leading experts in the field of transgenesis, and collaborates with some of the foremost institutions in this field- including The Roslin Institute of the University of Edinburgh, INRA-France, and PolyGene AG.
