新型实验动物垫料--蒲草垫料的开发

小型啮齿类实验动物饲养、繁殖等使用的垫料 ,多以木质垫料为主 ,这需要消耗大量木材 ,于保护自然环境非常不利。研究表明 ,许多种木材因含有对动物有害的物质而不适宜做垫料。因此 ,研究开发新型实验动物垫料是很有意义的。中国农业科学院哈尔滨兽医研究所的科研人员以生长于中国东北地区湿地中的多年生草本植物阔叶香蒲为研究对象 ,对其资源、分布、生物学特性、物理特性、污染情况及其毒性等进行了研究 ,证明蒲草资源丰富 ,价廉易得 ,质地柔软 ,吸水、吸氨性强 ,不含对动物有害的毒性物质 ,对啮齿动物生长、发育及繁殖无不良影响 ,是一种…

A New Laboratory Animal Bedding and Padding Material

Objective\ Small scale laboratory Animal to rodents breeding used bedding and padding that rely mainly on wooden bedding and padding more, This needs to consume a large amount of timber , very unfavorable protecting the natural environment. Studies have shown , a lot of kinds of timber because contain the harmful to animal material without suitable for making bedding and padding. So the work of research and develop new type animal used as test bedding and padding very meaningful. Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences Harbin veterinarian scientific research staffs of research institute in order to grow on perennial herb broad leaf cattail of wetland, the Northeast of China, as the research object, Study about resource, distributed, biological characteristic, physical characteristic, polluting situation and toxicity, etc. Proved the stem or leaf of cattail to be abundant and cheap resource, and get easy, the quality is soft , absorb water, suck strong ammonia, include no harmful toxicity material to animal, It is no harmful effects to grop, development and breed of rodents, It is a kind of better bedding and padding material.
