2015 Price List
This list provides details on 2015 charges for inbred, outbred and hybrid rodents for internal clients and external clients.
Rat Production
Following a review of rat colony production costs we have been forced to make significant changes to ensure future viability of the colonies.
Only rat stock up to 6 weeks old will be available and all that is not issued at that age will be culled. However, for orders received ahead of time, we will hold rats up to 8 weeks old at the Waite breeding unit. If rats are required older than 8 weeks, they will be shipped to the Medical School Animal House or requesting campus/institution to be aged there.
Please contact Andrew Bartlett, andrew.bartlett@adelaide.edu.au or 08 8313 4665 if you would like to discuss further.
Agistment Costs
This list details maintenance costs and charges for barrier access, theatre use, technical assistance, and blood and antibody production.
Laboratory Animal Services provides free delivery to Adelaide institutions twice per week (Tuesday & Thursday) except after a Monday public holiday where there is a Wednesday only delivery. Additional deliveries can be arranged for $32. For interstate and overseas deliveries, freight charges plus containers will apply.
As an AQIS approved quarantine facility, we are able to import and supply any internationally available laboratory animal. However a quarantine period and continued health status testing apply for animals from non-approved suppliers or overseas.
