Cd 1 a k a icr mice

Manufactured by Charles River Laboratories

CD-1 (also known as ICR) mice are an outbred mouse strain commonly used in research. They are characterized by their genetic diversity, making them suitable for studies that require a heterogeneous population. The CD-1 mice provide a source of genetically diverse animals for a variety of research applications.

Acclimating CD-1 Mice for Pain Research

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Male and female CD-1 (a.k.a. ICR) mice from 4–5 weeks of age were obtained from Charles River Laboratories (Wilmington, MA). This strain was chosen due to historical use by the pain and opioid field, as well as our previous study on D24M [34 ]. Animals were allowed to acclimate for at least 5 days after shipping prior to use. Animals were housed no more than 5 per cage in a 12:12 hour light/dark cycle, temperature and humidity controlled room in the University of Arizona AAALAC-accredited vivarium. Standard lab chow and water were available ad libitum. All experiments were approved by the University of Arizona IACUC and were in accordance with the guidelines of the NIH Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.

Behavioral Studies in Male and Female Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All experiments were performed on male and female CD-1 (a.k.a. ICR) mice obtained from Charles River in age-matched cohorts of 5–6 weeks of age. All mice were recovered for at least 5 days after shipping prior to experimentation, and housed no more than 5 per cage. The animals were maintained in an AAALAC-accredited vivarium at the University of Arizona in temperature and humidity-controlled rooms on a 12-h light/dark cycle. Standard chow and water were available ad libitum. For all behavioral experiments, mice were brought to the testing room in their home cages for at least 30 min prior to the experiment for acclimation. Mice were randomized to treatment group by randomization of mice to cages upon arrival, and block random assignment of cages to treatment group. The experimenter was blinded to treatment group by the delivery of coded drug vials. The groups were not decoded until all data had been acquired. All experiments were approved by the University of Arizona IACUC, and were carried out in accord with the standards of the NIH Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals. We also adhered to the guidelines of ARRIVE; no adverse events were noted for any of the animals.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
