Diet: SF01-025 Rat and Mouse 22% Fat

A high fat diet based on our standard Rat and Mouse formulation.

For general comments see the standard Rat and Mouse formulation
The total fat content of this diet has been increased to 22%. In our experience this is the maximum fat content that can be included into a standard pelletised diet. Even at this content a significant loss in pellet strength is apparent. Higher fat contents are possible but we have found that the diet form must change.
The increased fat content has resulted in a 28% increase in calculated energy from 14.3 MJ/Kg to 18.3 MJ/Kg.
All other nutritional parameters have been kept as close as possible to our standard diet
