Maintenance of laboratory animals should be performed with accuracy, efficacy, and highethical and regulatory compliance. The most under-exploited yet efficient upgrade for animalresearch facilities may be the implementation of an electronic shelf label for animal laboperations. Such technologies, combined with electronic cage card technology, arerevolutionizing...

In today's animal research laboratory environments, effectiveness, accuracy, and complianceare the priorities. The one laboratory improvement with the greatest positive impact is the shiftfrom handwritten paper-based records to an electronic cage card system. Not only is this time-saving, but it also decreases errors, improves communication,...

Lab animal handling demands the greatest level of precision, simplicity, and adherence torigorous research protocol. Cage documentation of lab animals is probably the most importantstep in the process. Record keeping of animal information to tracking experimental progress,precise record keeping assures animal care, regulatory compliance, and...

In lab animal research, precision is paramount. From breeding calendars and medicalinterventions to cage counts and compliance documentation, the slightest mistake canjeopardize animal well-being and research results. Animal labs used conventional paper cagecards for decades to manage this critical information. While straightforward and comforting,these cards...
