Experimental manipulations of rodents may result in unexpected adverse phenotypes that present problems from both regulatory and animal care-veterinary perspectives. The authors discuss the implications of unanticipated outcomes and describe a cage card-based tracking system used at the Harvard Medical School for the early detection and handling of unanticipated phenotypes in genetically altered rodents.
对啮齿动物进行实验操作可能会导致意外的不良表型,这从监管和动物护理-兽医的角度来看都存在问题。作者讨论了意外结果的影响,并描述了哈佛医学院使用的一种基于笼卡的追踪系统,用于早期检测和处理基因改造啮齿动物中的意外表型。
