Product Description - Harlan Teklad LM-485 Mouse/Rat Sterilizable Diet is a fixed formula diet designed to withstand autoclaving and to retain the nutrient composition and balance necessary to support the efficient growth, maintenance, and reproduction of research rodents. To assure adequate nutrient levels and balance, additional supplemental levels of the most labile vitamins [vitamin A, thiamine, pantothenic acid, and vitamin K (menadione sodium bisulfite complex)] are included to compensate for losses of these nutrients during autoclaving. This product contains no animal protein, making it very low in nitrosamines. In most cases, this diet can also be fed without autoclaving. (This diet is also available in an irradiated format, under the special product code 7912.) |
