Thanks for your comment! I would still use 'mouse model' here, as they are talking about Balb/c and C57BL/6 mice.

thanks Muriel!
agree Filippe Vasconcellos de Freitas Guimarães : "Murine model" is a set phrase. In it, "murine" refers specifically to mice (M. musculus). "Mouse model" is perfectly accurate and indeed most common, and I would certainly go with it in this case!
