  9. Animal testing on rodents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_testing_on_rodents

    Transgenic animal production consists of injecting each construct into 300–350 eggs, typically representing three days' work. Twenty to fifty mice will normally be born from this number of injected eggs. These animals are screened for the presence of the transgene by a polymerase chain reaction genotyping assay. The number of transgenic ...
