Diet: SF02-020 0.02% Sodium, 0.07% Chloride Semi Pure Rodent Diet
A fixed formulation semi pure diet based on AIN93G
rat and mouse, modified to reduce sodium content but retain
chloride above generally recognized minimum levels.
- The macro mineral and trace mineral additions
to this diet have been selected to minimize sodium and chlorine. A small
amount of sodium is present in the casein and starch components of the
formulation.
- Sodium chloride is added back to the low Na
base diet to control Na content at 0.02%.
- Potassium Chloride is used to adjust Cl content to greater than
generally recognised minimum.
- Feeding studies indicate that the diet is deficient in sodium for
conventional mouse strains.
- See also diet SF01-030.
