Hi Jamie, 
 
Please visit RGD's strains (http://rgd.mcw.edu/strains/) we have Zucker
rats and their mutants registered with us. You can get details about
both lean and obese models here.
 
If you need further details please let us know and I can give you the
contact information of the researchers at New Orleans.
 
Best Regards,

Dear Researchers,

I would like to ask a few questions about the ZDF rat model for T2D. 

Has anyone used the lean model? If so, how long does it take to induce 

overt diabetes via a high fat diet? What is the incidence for the lean 

and obese models?

Thank you for your time,

Jamie Nehring, M.S.
