Culture-collection centers are a common source of strains of bacteria and viruses. Many strains are readily available because they are maintained and distributed for a nominal cost by culture-collection centers supported by federal grants and by the American Type Culture Collection.

NIH has the authority to withhold Finding from grantees or NIH scientists who repeatedly refuse to share resources without sufficient reason. As an example of voluntary health organizations, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation strongly encourages investigators that it supports to share their resources with others.

The number of such animals, mainly mice, being developed in laboratories was growing dramatically as researchers increasingly recognized their enormous utility as a resource for biomedical research and perhaps for pharmaceutical purposes. The increased efforts at commercialization, the rapidly increasing variety of genetically altered mice, and the difficulty and expense of creating and storing them have led to growing concern that this research resource might not be made readily available to all researchers, because of licensing restrictions and logistical problems.
