ES Cell Electroporation $4,100
Transient Cre or FLP ES Cell Electroporation $820
ES Clone Expansion $530 per clone
KOMP or Genetrap ES Clone Expansion $530
Blastocyst Microinjection of C57BL/6 ES Cells $2,000
Blastocyst Microinjection of 129 Strain ES Cells $1,900
De Novo ES Cell Line Derivation $2,100 Preparation of ES cell lines from mouse blastocysts. Preparation of ES cell lines from mouse blastocysts. Preparation of ES cell lines from mouse blastocysts.We will collect blastocysts from your genetically engineered mouse model and culture them under conditions that are conducive to establishing ES cell lines. The number of ES cell lines produced is propotional to the number blastoycsts available for culture. The success of the Transgenic Core in de novo ES cell line derivation meets or exceeds published standards.

Mouse Speed Cryo $900
Mouse 8-Cell Egg Cryopreservation $900 per session
Mouse Strain Cryo-recovery $790
Mouse Sperm Cryo $620
BAC Recombineering $2,000 Acquistion of BACs from BAC library resources. Purification of BAC DNA suitable for pronuclear microinjection (transgenic mice or transgenic rats). Pulsed field gel mapping of BAC DNA to confirm identiy of BAC. Genetic modification of BACs by recombineering approaches to produce gene knockins, knockouts. Prepareation of gene targeting vectors for the modifcation of genes in embyronic stem cells.
Discuss structure of the desired BAC with the investigator and propose a recombineering path. Plasmids for knockins of fluorescent reporter molecules and Cre recombinase are available.
