Overview

The Laboratory Animal Research Center (LARC) was founded in 1965 as the first modern animal facility in Japan. The mice are strictly maintained in the SPF condition. The Animal Center building was improved to perform genome engineering in animals, to make infectious experiments (P2A, P3A), and to house bigger animals, such as rats and rabbits. Techniques of mouse embryo manipulation and generating genetically modified mice, including genome editing technologies, have been introduced into the LARC.
