During the last two decades Ellegaard Göttingen Minipigs A/S has provided the biomedical industry with high quality, microbiologically defined Göttingen Minipigs for different types of research. The high health status, genetic management, size and physiologic comparability to humans make the Göttingen Minipig very suitable as the non-rodent model in all fields of biomedical research.
Not only do we supply biomedical companies and organizations with Göttingen Minipigs but we also support our customers by sharing our knowledge and experiences with them and by offering courses in handling, dosing, surgery and training.
