Genetically Altered Göttingen Minipigs
In recent years, the number of genetically altered Göttingen Minipigs has increased, as advanced genetic techniques simplify the generation of animals with precisely tailored modifications.
These modifications are designed to replicate genetic alterations responsible for human disease. As such, genetically altered Göttingen Minipigs are valuable large animal disease models, and in addition, also considered promising donors for xenotransplantation.


At Ellegaard Göttingen Minipigs we offer the opportunity to use Göttingen Minipigs as background strain for the creation of genetically altered minipigs based on:
- a case-by-case assessment
- approval of your specified project plan
- a description of the specific sequence of the targeting construct
Furthermore, we offer contract breeding of genetically altered Göttingen Minipigs in our AAALAC accredited state-of-the-art Research Facility.
