Diet- Induced Disease Models

Cost Effective Indicator

Research Diets offers, a non-nutritive kaolin pellet for use in your research. It is a cost effective, easy to use, early indicator of visceral illness in your experimental animals. Early identification of this adverse experience profile of a compound saves money and streamlines the rational drug design process. Researchers studying metabolic disorders rely on food intake measures as a primary endpoint in evaluating the efficacy of experimental treatments. However, anorectic effects can reflect primary efficacy or secondary effects due to visceral illness. Consumption of kaolin offers early insight into the mechanisms operating in your in vivo studies.
