Laboratory mice are used as research models for humans as over 95% of the mouse genome is similar to our own, making mouse genetic research particularly applicable to human diseases. Mice can produce 10-15 offspring per litter and approximately one litter every month. Therefore different strategies for monitoring and managing these laboratory mice are used.Health is the level of functional or metabolic efficiency of a living organism.
