As a researcher, you want to have as much control as possible over what goes into your study animals. At Envigo, we understand that. That is why we developedTeklad全球啮齿动物饮食^®。

Teklad全球啮齿动物饮食^®are a special integrated range of vegetarian laboratory rodent diets developed to be nutritionally complete for various life stages from breeding through long-term maintenance. Global rodent laboratory diets contain levels of protein, energy, vitamins and minerals that are more appropriate to the needs of modern biomedical research studies.

Furthermore, in global rodent diets particular attention has been placed on avoiding, as far as practical, ingredients that are reported to have adverse confounding effects on experimental results. This has resulted in a range of Teklad rodent laboratory diets that contain:

• No fish meal
• No meat meals or meat by-products
• 没有苜蓿粉
• 没有大豆餐或降低水平
• 没有动物脂肪

通过排除动物副产物，避免了亚硝胺（潜在的致癌物）的存在。排除苜蓿粉可减少叶绿素，提高光学成像清晰度。减少或去除大豆膳食，以及消除苜蓿粉，最大限度地减少了天然存在的植物雌激素的水平。植物雌激素与内源性雌激素相互作用，并且可能会影响许多研究research areas。在这些作品中阅读更多信息：
