ANIMAL SCIENCE

Qualified staff ensure the delivery of services and assist you in preparing procedures in accordance with current regulations.

Continuous veterinary follow-up is ensured, including the monitoring of animal welfare and health status according to FELASA recommendations.

Depending on your request, our teams will only provide housing for the animals or carry out the experimental procedures.

ADVANTAGES OF THE DIFFERENT SITES

Production animal science for the breeding and housing of mice in SOPF confinement as well as axenic mice. Experimental animal science at the Langlade, Purpan and Rangueil sites offer housing in SOPF or SPF containment. In addition, experimental procedures can be performed for rodent models in A1 and A2 containment.
This site is associated with 3 Inserm research departments: CRCT, I2MC and CPTP.

Production animal science for the breeding and housing of mice in SPF confinement.
Experimental animal science for conducting experimental procedures on mouse models in A1 containment.
The unique feature of this site is the presence of a level 3 biosecurity animal facility allowing research teams to benefit from powerful tools (confocal imaging, cytometry, sorter, histology, etc.) that can be used to understand the physiopathology of infectious diseases and to identify therapeutic targets in animals, all in a high-security environment.

Production animal science for the breeding and housing of mice. This is organized into two distinct containment areas: SPF containment and a quarantine.
Experimental animal science for conducting experimental procedures on mouse models in A1 containment.

Experimental animal science for conducting experimental procedures in A2 and A3 containment on model mice, rabbits (15 cages, carrying capacity: 30 animals), young cattle (carrying capacity: 9 animals), sheep (carrying capacity: 12 animals), chickens, ducks, and turkeys (4 insulators).
On the campus of the National Veterinary School of Toulouse (ENVT), in collaboration with the teams of UMR INRA/ENVT 1225 Host Interactions – Pathogenic Agents
