Product Description
2018S  Teklad Global 18% Protein Rodent Diet (Sterilizable)  is a fixed formula, autoclavable diet manufactured with high quality ingredients and designed to support gestation, lactation, and growth of rodents. 2018S does not contain alfalfa, thus lowering the occurrence of natural phytoestrogens. Typical isoflavone concentrations (daidzein + genistein aglycone equivalents) range from 150 to 250 mg/kg. Exclusion of alfalfa reduces chlorophyll, improving optical imaging clarity. Absence of animal protein and fish meal minimizes the presence of nitrosamines. 2018S is supplemented with additional vitamins to ensure nutritional adequacy after autoclaving.
