Models of diet-induced obesity (DIO) are commonly used in research of non-leptin deficient obesity. Characterizations such as insulin resistance and hyperphagia are well published on the C57BL/6 mouse, Sprague Dawley® and Long Evans rats maintained on adjusted calorie diets. Consider Harlan Laboratories as your source for quality, preconditioned animals with custom diet maintenance within maximum security production barriers until scheduled shipment to your facility.
