This book describes the development of animal models widely used in biomedical research using step-wise instructions and photographs. Showcasing a wide range of species from zebra fishes, birds, rodents, rabbits, dogs, and pigs, the book includes detailed methodology on how to work with these species and to develop various models. The animal models in neurology including stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and Schizophrenia; Animal models in cancer research, sleep disorders, and cardiovascular diseases are described to meet the understanding of researchers who plan to replicate these models in their laboratories. In depth detailing on the development of targeted gene knockouts and transgenics, implantation models that are used in toxicology studies, and pharmacokinetic studies in pigs and dogs are a highlight. Further, the book describes pharmacologic, chemically induced, surgically induced, microbiologically induced, infectious models, models for neurobehavioral studies, oncology research, and pain research. The book has dedicated sections on anesthesia and analgesia and teaches procedures like venous cut-downs and cannulations in pigs and dogs, and endotracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation and thoracotomy in rodents and will serve as a self-training tool. Concepts in the field of animal model development are explained using examples. Sample size selection, study design, and statistical evaluation of experiments involving laboratory animals are explained to enable young researchers to practically understand the nuances. This book will be a valuable tool for academicians, students, scientists, and veterinarians and will benefit equally who are new to the field and who are already working with laboratory animals.

Harikrishnan Vijayakumar Sreelatha is a veterinarian, who graduated from the College of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Mannuthy, Kerala, India and he joined Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences and Technology to start working with porcine models in a drug-eluting stent pre-clinical safety and efficacy evaluation programme in 2003. During this period, he also worked on ovine and caprine models as well. Since 2005, he started to work with rodents and rabbits for various proof of concept projects. In 2009, he received the International Young Scientist Award offered by the Japanese Association of Laboratory Animal Science for his work in hindlimb ischemic rabbit model. He joined for a Master’s programme in laboratory animal science at the Department of Veterinary Disease Biology, University of Copenhagen, Denmark with scholarships and travel grants from Laboratory animals Ltd. United Kingdom, UFAW, UK, Federation of European laboratory Animal Science Associations (FELASA), EU, Scandinavian (SCAND-LAS), Swiss (SGV), and British Laboratory Animal Science Associations awards during 2010-14.

He has also developed many preclinicaldisease models, in different therapeutic areas like diabetes, inflammation, arthritis, dyslipidemia, cancer etc. using different novel methodologies and techniques. He has enormous knowledge and experience in care, management, breeding and regulatory experimentation of laboratory animals including inbreds, outbreds, mutants, transgenics (genetically modified), immune-deficient and humanized animal models, dogs and non-human primates. He has also to his credit, a few innovative products which are commercialized and, are in the market, where he has been involved in basic research and development. He also worked for B.V. Patel Pharmaceutical Education Research & Development (B.V. PERD) Centre, Hester Bioscience ltd, and Cadila Pharmaceutical Pvt ltd, Ahmedabad in the field of biomedical research and development.

He has published more than 25 research publications in national and international peer-reviewed journals. He is also member of few societies of veterinary science and laboratory animal science. His current area of interest is improvement of current practices of laboratory animal care and management and refining methodologies in animal experimentation.
Dr. Perumal Nagarajan is working as head, scientist at laboratory animal facility, National Institute of Immunology, New Delhi, India. Being a veterinarian, he has been working on laboratory animals for more than 20 years. He has vast knowledge and expertise in the care, management, breeding and medicine of laboratory animals including genetically modified animals, immunodeficient animal models, humanized animal models and non-human primates that are beingused in research. Before joining NII, he worked at Central Drug Research Institute (CDRI) and the National University of Singapore (NUS). He had undergone diverse training in laboratory animals including imaging modalities and microsurgery abroad. His research interest is in animal models for various diseases and in particular metabolic diseases. He has published more than 50 research articles in peer-reviewed international journals authored book chapters and edited the book “Essentials of Laboratory Animal Science: Principles and Practices” Springer.

(2) A consumer within the meaning of the following regulations is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to their commercial nor their independent professional activity. An entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of his independent professional or commercial activity.
§ 2 Conclusion of the contract
(1) The object of the contract is the sale of goods.
(2) If an article is listed by us at AbeBooks or ZVAB, the activation of the offer page at AbeBooks or ZVAB constitutes the binding offer to conclude a contract under the conditions contained in the article page.

(4) The processing of the order and transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract is partly automated by e-mail. You must therefore ensure that the e-mail address you have stored with us is correct, that the receipt of the e-mails is technically ensured and, in particular, that spam filters do not prevent it.
§ 3 Right of retention, retention of title

(2) The goods remain our property until full payment of the purchase price.
§ 4 Warranty
(1) The statutory warranty rights exist.
(2) In the case of used goods, the warranty period is one year from delivery of the item, deviating from the statutory regulation. The shortening of the deadline does not apply:
- culpably caused damages attributable to us from injury to life, limb or health and in the case of other damages caused intentionally or through gross negligence;
- insofar as we have fraudulently concealed the defect or have assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item.
(3) As a consumer, you are requested to check the item immediately upon delivery for completeness, obvious defects and transport damage and to inform us and the freight forwarder of any complaints as soon as possible. If you do not comply with this, this will have no effect on your statutory warranty claims.
§ 5 Choice of law, place of performance, place of jurisdiction
(1) German law shall apply. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as this does not withdraw the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the state of the consumer's habitual residence (principle of favourability).
(2) The place of performance for all services arising from the existing business relationships with us as well as the place of jurisdiction is our registered office, insofar as you are not a consumer, but a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law. The same applies if you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU or if the domicile or habitual residence is not known at the time the action is brought.
