ILAR maintains the International Laboratory Code Registry. A Laboratory Code is a code of usually one to four letters (first letter is upper case, followed by all lower case), that identifies a particular institute, laboratory, or investigator that produced, and may hold stocks of a DNA marker, an animal strain, or a mutation. Laboratory codes are also used in naming chromosomal aberrations and transgenes. Please see the Laboratory Code FAQ for more information.
