However, since it requires surgical implantation, this model is the most difficult and time-consuming to develop. Other drawbacks associated with the model are that it portrays weak immune responses to [[xenobiotic]]s, sub-optimal [[Immunoglobulin class switching|class switching]] and may develop [[GvHD]].
