Tenders Are Invited For Architectural, Construction, Engineering And Inspection Services – General Planning For The Conversion Of The Central Experimental Animal Husbandry (Zet)

Architectural, Construction, Engineering And Inspection Services – General Planning For The Conversion Of The Central Experimental Animal Husbandry (Zet). At The Ukj, Animal Experiments Are Used To Understand Complex Relationships In The Body As Basic Or Translational Research. Before Conducting Animal Experiments, A Check Is Always Carried Out To Determine Whether Alternative Methods Are Available That Can Achieve The Scientific Research Goal. Animal Protection Officers Are Appointed At Every Facility Where Laboratory Animals Are Kept. A Series Of Far-Reaching Events In The Recent Past Have Significantly Changed The Image Of Working In An Animal Experiment Facility. These Include Not Only Changes In Animal Protection Or The Ever-Increasing Use Of Substitute Methods For Animal Testing, But Also The Increasingly Safe Use Of Cryogenic Technologies, Which Make Stocks Of Transgenic Rodents Less Necessary. In Addition, We Are Constantly Working On Finding Opportunities For Improvement In Terms Of Resource And Energy Savings In All Economic Routes Within A Laboratory Animal Facility. Nevertheless, Animal Experimental Facilities Remain An Important Point In The Context Of Preclinical And Clinical Research.
