[英文] The Laboratory swine

2020-04-25

Laboratory swine have become important animal models, although the number of swine used in research stands no comparison with the number of rodents used. Since the first edition of The Laboratory Swine was published, a further increase in the number of swine has occurred, and swine are replacing other non-rodent species, such as dogs and primates, more and more in toxicity studies.

[英文] Clinical Laboratory Animal Medicine

2020-04-17

The purpose of this book is to provide basic information on unique anatomic and physiologic characteristics, care and maintenance,common diseases, and recommended treatments for rodents, rabbits, ferrets, and nonhuman primates. It has been prepared as a guide for practicing veterinarians, veterinary students, veterinary technicians, research scientists, and others interested in learning about smaller mammals and nonhuman primates. Knowledge is the key to a familiar dictum: primum non nocere—“first do no harm.” To undertake medical care of a species with which one is unfamiliar can be dangerous. By gaining familiarity with the more significant, unique biologic features of laboratory animals, learning the most common disease processes, and applying knowledge and skills acquired during professional training, veterinarians should be capable of providing health care to these animals with a reasonable degree of competence.

[英文] Aggression in group-housed laboratory mice: why can't we solve the problem?

[英文] Nonhuman primate species as models of human bacterial sepsis

2020-04-06

Sepsis involves a disordered host response to systemic infection leading to high morbidity and mortality. Despite intense research, targeted sepsis therapies beyond antibiotics have remained elusive. The cornerstone of sepsis research is the development of animal models to mimic human bacterial infections and test novel pharmacologic targets.

The Live Animals Regulations (LAR), developed by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), list standards for about 7,000 species or container requirements. However, less than 20 species compose more than 98 percent of the animals that are shipped or used in bio-medical research. Mice, rats, and fish make up more than 85 percent of animals used in research worldwide.
