Harlan Teklad 2016 global 16% protein rodent diets
Product Features
- Designed to support growth and maintenance
- Formulated to exclude soybean meal, thus minimizing the presence of isoflavones, the primary type of phytoestrogen found in lab animal diets
- Typical isoflavone concentrations (daidzein + genistein aglycone equivalents) range from non-detectable to 20 mg/kg
- Exclusion of alfalfa reduces chlorophyll, greatly improving fluorescent optical imagingclarity
- Absence of animal protein and fish meal minimizes the presence of nitrosamines (a potential carcinogen)

Teklad Global 16% Protein Rodent Diet
Product Description- 2016 is a fixed formula, non-autoclavable diet
manufactured with high quality ingredients and designed to support growth
and maintenance. 2016 does not contain alfalfa or soybean meal, thus
minimizing the occurrence of natural phytoestrogens. Typical isoflavone
concentrations (daidzein + genistein aglycone equivalents) range from nondetectable
to 20 mg/kg. Exclusion of alfalfa reduces chlorophyll, improving
optical imaging clarity. Absence of animal protein and fish meal minimizes
the presence of nitrosamines. Also available certified (2016C) and
irradiated (2916). For autoclavable diet, refer to 2016S (Sterilizable).

- Ether extract is used to measure fat in pelleted diets, while an acid hydrolysis method is required to recover fat in extruded diets. Compared to ether extract, the fat value for acid hydrolysis will be approximately 1% point higher.
- Carbohydrate (available) is calculated by subtracting neutral detergent fiber from total carbohydrates.
- Neutral detergent fiber is an estimate of insoluble fiber, including cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. Crude fiber methodology underestimates total fiber.
- Energy density is a calculated estimate of metabolizable energybased on the Atwater factors assigning 4 kcal/g to protein, 9 kcal/g to fat, and 4 kcal/g to available carbohydrate.
- Indicates added amount but does not account for contribution from other ingredients.
- 1 IU vitamin A = 0.3 µg retinol
- 1 IU vitamin D = 25 ng cholecalciferol
For nutrients not listed, insufficient data is available to quantify.
Nutrient data represent the best information available, calculated from published values and direct analytical testing of raw materials and finished product. Nutrient values may vary due to the natural variations in the ingredients, analysis, and effects of processing.
