Animal

If you are working with one animal species but administering one type of hazard to a group and a different hazard to another group, list these as two separate entries. For example, if you are administering microbes to a group of mice and biological toxins to another group of mice, list these separately.  If you are administering microbes and biological toxins to the same group of mice, these can be entered as one entry.

Animal Housing

If you have questions about what types of animal housing is appropriate or available, contact your facility manager for details.
