Disclaimer:
The GMF does not provide any guarantees that targeted ES cell clones will be produced and/or identified, nor does it guarantee that targeted ES cell clones will produce germ line transmitting chimeras. However, experience over the past years 100+ projects revealed a success rate of over 95%.

Non-Harvard Academic & Non-Profit users pay 15% more than Harvard users. Service fees for Industry & For-Profit users are given upon request.

The GMF reserves the right to change fees without prior notice.
