Note that mouse rates are "per cage". All other species
are per animal.
Special rates are applicable for specialized housing and care. Contact
LAS for special rates.
Mouse quarantine rate is applicable for newly arrived animals shipped from other research institutions or any non-approved vendor. The quarantine rate is also applicable for mice bearing transplantable tumors or cell-lines which have not been approved following extensive screening for rodent pathogens. See the Rutgers Policy on use of transplantable tumors and cell lines in animals . Animals in quarantine may be subject to additional charges for maintenance and testing of sentinel animals.
Note: Investigators should plan for a minimum 3% - 5% increase annually, with rates increasing on July1 in the future.
