| Mouse strains for freeze preservation
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Since a sufficient number of embryos have been preserved, live mice of
the following strains will be discontinued soon.
It will take more than 3 months to recover live mice from frozen stock.
Therefore, please inform us as soon as possible if you plan to use the
mice and request them alive.
