This comprehensive source presents the practical aspects of handling laboratory animals. Each chapter is written by a recognized expert in the field. Covers all the major procedures needed to produce worthwhile and reliable studies using laboratory animals--studies which are as humane as current knowledge can make possible. All major species are discussed: rat, mouse, rabbit, guinea-pig, cat and dog, including coverage of less-used species such as fowl and hamster. Chapters cover handling and innoculation methods, drug administration, preparation for surgery and post-surgical care, anaesthesia, and analgesia. Further chapters describe the effects of animal quality (genetic and microbiological), animal behavior, and animal husbandry. Two important chapters cover the legal and ethical aspects of animal experimentation.
