| Sinclair provides
complete service support for the animal sales.The miniature
swine are delivered either in our AAALAC accredited
acclimatized trucks or by approved shipping companies.
All animals are well conditioned through our well-established
socialization program prior to shipping. We consider
the pre-shipping conditioning of the animals an integral
part of the production program. The pre-shipping conditioning
starts with the selection of the miniature swine and
includes health and socialization considerations.
We are very experienced in pre-shipping alterations
performed in the spirit of GLP. Common pre-shipping
alterations include: vascular access ports placement,
high cholesterol diet feeding, diabetes induction, test
article administration, and biopsies collection for
autotransplantation, etc. Furthermore, Sinclair provides
an array of bio-samples in rodents, cats, dogs, miniature
swine, goats, and sheep. These bioproducts include blood
products (plasma - all anticoagulants, serum, whole
blood) tissue, organs and joints. We also provide special
services such as whole body composion, bone density,
experimental surgery, special diet preparation, ultrasonography,
EKG and cardioecography.
