From choosing the correct housing and husbandry practices, to nutritional concerns and correct NSP sampling techniques to ensure the quality of your research and its data, our experts will cover a wide range of topics that support the care and welfare of laboratory animal models while supporting the 3R’s.
You will gain insights on:
Care and Husbandry of Immunodeficient Rodents at a Commercial Breeder
Presented by Mandy Horn, MS, Manager of Veterinary Science and Research Services
The care and husbandry of immunodeficient rodents can have an impact on research outcomes. How well the animal copes within its environment (e.g., ability to express natural behaviors), appropriate care and shelter, as well as health and nutrition, are impactful and should be taken into consideration with proper evaluation and implementation.
Diet Considerations for Immunodeficient Rodents
Presented by Barbara Mickelson, PhD, Nutritionist and Manager of Teklad Technical Services
Thoughtful consideration should be given to the choice of diet for any research study. This presentation will include information on diet ingredients, form, packaging, and sterilization methods. Additionally, there will be some discussion regarding how components of diets can affect research outcomes.
Proper NSP Sample Collection for Health Monitoring
Presented by Floriana Centritto, PhD, Laboratory Technician
With an increasing number of non-sacrificial panel (NSP) testing methods and sampling techniques, health monitoring has become a common practice for improving animal welfare and furthering the 3Rs. However, the quality of the sample determines the quality of the results; collecting samples for health monitoring in a proper way ensures reliable and consistent results. This session will provide considerations for the proper collection and handling of NSP samples to ensure the health status of your rodent models.
