A New Comer - (Jul/05/2012 )

Dear Guys,
I may start using animal in near future.
And I want to be prepared, so I wonder if there is any books or guided line that might help in testing in vivo or using animals
I would be very grateful for your suggestion, or links for these books
Best Regards

Books on how to work with the animals or rather books on how to perform/design animal tests (more statstics related)?

Have you allready passed your exam/course on animal handeling ?
(or is this not needed in your country?)

Dear

pito

I know how to work with animal from the undergraduate level, I can work well with mice.
But Perhaps I need licence to start working now.
However, what I am looking for is some suggestion of book titles.
Related to both suggested areas
The good one in this area.
Thanks

I can give you this syllabus. Its the syllabus students (in Belgium) have to pass to get their FELASA C licence (I am assuming you need this too in your country to work with lab animals?)

About book titles: search the syllabus I send you, there might be some titles, but I think the best shot you have is to look up the universal rules , international rules about how to work with animals. Those regulations state whats possible and whats not, that might help you allready a lot.

About books in general: http://www.amazon.com/Handbook-Laboratory-Animal-Science-Edition/dp/0849310865

And check this link for more links/helpfull information.

Its hard to give exaxt books; it all depends on what you are looking for.

Dear
