Animal experiments are increasingly valued by researchers as a fundamental and important support condition for life science research, and the level of development of experimental zoology has been used to evaluate the level of life science and medical research.
Features include:
- SPF-level animal facilities raise rats, guinea pigs, and rabbits.
- General animal facilities for raising guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs, monkeys, and pigs.
- Cryopreservation of embryos and sperm.
- Use of advanced equipment, including X-ray irradiation, IVIS, MRI, CT, etc.
The animal facility laboratory consists of a breeding room, observation room, isolation and quarantine room, and various laboratories (surgery, experimental treatment dissection, disease diagnosis, treatment, physiological and biochemical examination, microbiological quarantine, and feed nutrition analysis). All equipment in the laboratory is managed and used in accordance with GLP requirements.
Commonly used laboratory animals
- Guinea pig: Characterized by short and smooth fur, fast growth, strong resistance to disease and good reproductive performance. It is widely used in pharmacology, epidemiology, immunology, nutrition, otology and other medical and biological research.
- Mice: Black, tolerant to radioactive substances, but high incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma after irradiation. It is tolerant to Mycobacterium tuberculosis with high alcoholophilia, and is a common strain for oncology, physiology and genetics research.
- Rat: The inbred strain of rats, brown, resistant to experimental allergic encephalomyelitis. It is also resistant to autoimmune complex glomerulonephritis.
- SD rats: White, produce more litters, and grow faster than Wistar rats. Resistance to disease is particularly high for respiratory diseases. The incidence of spontaneous tumors is low and the sensitivity to sex hormones is high.
