Abstract
Revised techniques for derivation and maintenance of gnotobiotic dogs for research purposes were outlined. Gravid uteri were removed from pregnant beagle bitches and passed through a germicidal trap into a flexible plastic isolation unit. Pups were raised on a milk replacement diet and weaned to solid food by 4 wk of age.
