Abstract:
With the rapid development of the biopharmaceutical industry in China, the laboratory animal sector has entered a stage of rapid growth, and the construction of facility operation systems has become increasingly automated and intelligent. Compared to traditional laboratory animal facilities, new facilities require a more specialized technical team for the maintenance of air supply and exhaust systems, air conditioning, automated control, and the entire barrier system. The Lingang Laboratory’s animal facilities accommodate both large and small animals for feeding and experimental purposes. The facility management team has summarized daily maintenance experiences and explored various operational and maintenance modes based on the characteristics of laboratory operation. After analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of three common modes, this paper provides new ideas for the management of these laboratory animal facilities, and offers guidance for peers in choosing the most appropriate professional maintenance mode.
