Description
This international journal of laboratory animal science and welfare publishes peer-reviewed original papers and reviews on all aspects of the use of animals in biomedical research, including new animal models; laboratory animal microbiology; clinical case reports; descriptions of new or improved research techniques; reports on the influence of environmental and other variables on research results; descriptions of techniques which offer replacements for in vivo models; and basic data characterizing the haematology, biochemistry or pathology of new or existing animal models. Particular emphasis is given to research describing work that involves a reduction in the number of animals that need to be used, or which replaces animal models with in vitro alternatives, or which represents a significant refinement in methodology, leading to improvements in the welfare or well-being of the animals used. Occasional supplements are also published.
Laboratory Animals is the official journal of the Federation of European Laboratory Animal Science Associations (FELASA), Gesellschaft für Versuchstierkunde (GV-SOLAS), the Israeli Laboratory Animal Forum (ILAF), the Laboratory Animal Science Association (LASA), Nederlandse Vereniging voor Proefdierkunde (NVP), Sociedad Española para las Ciencias del Animal de Laboratorio (SECAL), and Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Versuchstierkunde (SGV).
