Recommended Dose Volumes for Common Laboratory Animals

The goal of this project was to develop and implement a harmonized guideline for ideal and maximum dose volumes for various routes for the most common laboratory animals in biomedical research. 

Topic: Reduction

ARRIVE (Animal Research: Reporting of In Vivo Experiments) Guidelines

Our ARRIVE (Animal Research: Reporting of In Vivo Experiments) guidelines are intended to improve the reporting of research using animals – maximising information published and minimising unnecessary studies.

3Rs Reduction

This site provides an interactive short course on experimental design for research scientists working with laboratory animals. The aim is to reduce the number of animals which are used, improve the quality of the science and save time, money and other scientific resources.

Topic: Reduction

Collaborative Approach to Metanalysis

CAMARADES provides a supporting framework for groups involved in the systematic review and meta-analysis of data.

SyRF is a fully integrated online platform for performing systematic reviews of preclinical studies.

Topic: Reduction

The Design of Animal Experiments

"The Design of Animal Experiments" is intended for all research scientists who use laboratory animals, with the aim of helping them to design their own experiments more effectively.

Topic: Reduction

Isogenic Strains

Isogenic strains (inbred strains and F1 hybrids) are like immortal clones of genetically identical individuals. The same genotype can be reproduced indefinitely. They have already made a substantial contribution to biomedical research. 

Topic: Reduction

Reducing Mouse Numbers by Measuring Tumour Size Non-Invasively

Scientists at the ICR are increasingly using non-invasive methods to measure the size of tumours in mice – allowing the same mouse to be assessed several times and reducing the overall numbers
