Experts from The Jackson Laboratory and around the world provide practical advice on everything from how to establish a colony to where to go for specific mutations. The book includes information on medical photography, grafting procedures, and how to map the genes and evaluate the special biological characteristics of mice. It also discusses how to maintain a colony of mice that breed with difficulty, how to approach mapping spontaneous mutations, how to set up systems to evaluate a specific antibody, how to perform simple measurements that yield a large amount of information, and how to access mouse informatics on the Web.
