Does TestDiet® irradiate diets for barrier facilities?
Research facilities are increasingly specifying gamma-irradiation as the economical and practical alternative to autoclaving. Many purified diets cannot be autoclaved without damaging the diet. At your request, all our TestDiet® products can be sterilized by gamma-irradiation at a nominal additional cost, usually only $1/kg with no minimum quantity. Our Doxycycline and Fenbendazole diets are offered with free irradiation included in the price. Irradiation normally can take up to 10 additional business days; expedited service is sometimes available at an extra cost. More information on gamma irradiation.
