Laboratory Animal Science
| A spontaneous neurological mutation was detected in a colony of Sprague Dawley rats. The animals developed a progressive neurological syndrome characterized by tremor (which appeared at the age of 1 month), ataxia (at 4 months), immobility episodes (after 5-6 months), audiogenic seizures and hindlimb paralysis (after 10 months). Cross breeding experiments indicate that this is an autosomal re...
متن کاملNutrigenomics and its Applications in Animal Science
Nutrigenomics applies genomic technologies to study how nutrients affect expression of genes. With the advent of the post genomic era and with the use of functional genomic tools, the new strategies for evaluating the effects of nutrition on production efficiency and nutrient utilization are becoming available. Nutrigenomics plays an efficient role in various fields of animal health like nutrit...
متن کاملAnimal Genomics in Science, Social Science and Culture
Animals are commonplace in genomic research, yet to date there has been little direct interrogation of the position, role and construction of animals in the otherwise flourishing social science of genomics. Following a brief discussion of this omission, I go on to suggest that there is much of interest for the social sciences and the humanities in this field of science. I show that animal genom...
متن کاملDeveloping a Collaborative Agenda for Humanities and Social Scientific Research on Laboratory Animal Science and Welfare
Improving laboratory animal science and welfare requires both new scientific research and insights from research in the humanities and social sciences. Whilst scientific research provides evidence to replace, reduce and refine procedures involving laboratory animals (the '3Rs'), work in the humanities and social sciences can help understand the social, economic and cultural processes that enhan...
متن کاملAiding mutual recognition of laboratory animal science courses through the ETPLAS initiative, the Education & Training Platform for Laboratory Animal Science.
After the adoption of Directive 2010/63/EU, harmonisation and mutual recognition of education and training (E&T) programmes in laboratory animal science are important assets for pan-European scientific exchange and mobility of personnel. Education and training are important contributors to the 3Rs and are aimed at increasing the quality of both animal welfare and science. With this in mind, the...
