Available Products

In our continuing quest to make available new stock items that were particularly in demand, we have added several products to the original Categories. In addition to the listed pelletized products, Innovative Research of America has an efficient Custom Pellets Department to prepare products that are not available as stock items.

Proven Effectiveness

Researchers from around the world have documented in scientific literature the advantages of our time release technology over conventional delivery methods. For over two decades, the MDD Pellet System has proven to be effective, consistent, economical, reliable and safe for the animal. Perhaps more importantly, scientists can expect more meaningful and reproducible research results by utilizing the MDD Pellet System.
