Animals obtained from vendors on the approved list, particularly rodents, may be exempt from quarantine upon arrival. If the animals/colony come for approved vendor’s research colonies (not production colonies), then they have to go through quarantine/re-derivation before their introduction in to the CCM animal facility.

No rodent health surveillance monitoring programs using sentinels are used in quarantine room(s). In CCM, the quarantine facilities are primarily used as a staging/housing area for rodents arrived from non-approved vendors or research institutions for the purpose of re-derivation using embryo transfer.
