Conception of establishing a centralized animal facility for the institutional management to use the laboratory animals for research and education in Tsushima campus, Okayama University

It has been important for academic research institutions to properly use the laboratory animals for research and education, pursuant to the provisions of the Law, Care and Management Standards, and the Fundamental Guidelines concerning animal experiments and related activities. However, in the several faculties, which do not have the centralized animal facilities, it appears that using the animals are inconsistent with these ordinances.
