The Mouse Assisted Reproductive Technology (MART)<\/a> Core staff are experienced in collecting mouse sperm, harvesting unfertilized eggs, conducting in-vitro fertilization and embryo transplantation. In addition, to eliminate common mouse pathogens in the offspring born to mice of uncertain health status (example, mice coming from other facilities and countries), we perform cesarean section, embryo transfer, and in-vitro fertilization. In addition to core reproductive technology support, MART is also available for technical training and collaboration on services within the scope of technical expertise.
