GlossaryInbred Mice

genetically identical mice bred for consistent scientific research results

Inbred mice are laboratory mice that have been bred over many generations to be genetically identical. This uniformity makes them valuable for scientific research, as it reduces genetic variability and allows for more consistent and reproducible results in experiments, particularly in studies related to genetics, disease, and drug testing.
