Strain: iP/Iusm

Symbol: iP/Iusm
Strain: iP
Substrain: Iusm
Full Name: inbred alcohol-preferring
RGD ID: 634380
Citation ID: RRID:RGD_634380
Ontology ID: RS:0000635
Alleles: Npy
Also Known As: P; alcohol-preferring; inbred alcohol-preferring
Type: inbred
Available Source: Not Available
Origination: Department of Medicine, Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, Indiana
Description: These were inbred alcohol-preferring rats developed from outbred alcohol-preferring rats (Iusm:P) at generation 30 at Indiana University for high-alcohol-preferring behavior. Inbred rats utilized for the development of alcohol-preferring, alcohol-nonpreferring congenic strains were in the27th generation of inbreeding.
Last Known Status: Unknown
