Different body weight gain during adolescence of in-house bred and vendor-derived mice. Kinetics of body weight gain 6-10 weeks after birth of mice that underwent 18 h-lasting over-night shipment from vendor compared with animals from own breeding facility, n = 4-20 mice/group. (ANOVA for effects of breeding conditions F(8) = 26.74, p < 0.0001; ANOVA for effects of time F(8) = 20.97, p < 0.0001); *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 compared to day 1 in the in-house bred group; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001 compared to day 1 in the vendor-derived group; +p < 0.05 compared with day 22 in the in-house-bred group; comparison by Tukey testing.
