* $2,500 for plasmid inserts <10kb into B6SJL. An additional $1250 for BACs and plasmid inserts >10kb, and/or an additional $1250 for strains other than B6SJL: for example, a small plasmid into B6SJL would be $2500, a small plasmid insert into B6CBA would be $3750, a BAC into C57Bl/6J would be $5000.
†$5,000 for the 129 R1 ES cell line; $7,000 for the C2 C57BL/6 ES cell line.
‡$2,500 for 129 ES cell lines; $3,750 for C57BL/6 ES cell lines.
An additional minimum of $200 for animal transport will be charged for non-CWRU orders.

†A December 2006 survey of rates and practices conducted by the transgenic core at UC Irvine. The institutions were not identified and are from around the world, and so some institutions may not be comparable to CWRU in many aspects, including their support of cores. The complete survey is available on their website.
