The Laboratory Animal Center of Soochow University (formerly the Laboratory Animal Center of Suzhou Medical College) was founded in 1987, and is directly affiliated to medical college of Soochow University. It is a main support department and teaching base for the affiliated hospitals of Soochow University, as well as FUNSUM College, sport College, the psychology department of education college, and etc.
The Laboratory animal center is an integrated service agencies containing service, teaching and scientific research. It is composed of animal experiment research department, comparative medicine teaching department, animal production and management department and comprehensive medical department. There are over 60 stuff in the laboratory animal center, including 4 senior-grade professional titles and 8 medium-gradeprofessional titles, 5 doctoral degree as well as 8 master degree. The professional field relates to experimental animals, veterinary medicine, and relevant majors.
The animal experimental facilities owns 4500 ㎡ SPF-grade laboratory animal facility, 10000-grade cleanliness operating room 150 ㎡, P2 laboratory room 150 ㎡, animal quarantine and cleaning room 100 ㎡, and common-grade big animal(pig, dog, monkey, cat, rabbit, guinea pig) area 800 ㎡. We have 5 certificated licenses authorized by Jiangsu science and Technology Department areas.
We provide experimental animals of different levels to the whole school, including more than 20 kinds of animals, such as SPF conventional strain rat, normal class guinea pig, New Zealand rabbit, beagle, miniature pig, as well as various kinds of gene modified animal models of immunodeficiency mice.We also provide technical services for the teaching and scientific research work of all teachers and students, such as animal surrogate breeding model making surgery experiment operation, training of biological purification embryo operation, and testing of experimental animal quality.
We undertake the teaching task of “medical laboratory animal courses” for undergraduate and graduate students of various specialties in the Medicine college, with more than 1000 teaching hours per year. We has obtained the master's degree in laboratory animal, training the master's students in this specialty direction. As the first continuing education base of the Chinese Society for Lab Animals as well as the training base for laboratory animal practitioners of Jiangsu Province, our center trains professional and technical personnel.
The laboratory animal center has established suzhou animal experimental research key laboratory, Jiangsu province medical instrument preclinical research and evaluation service center, Suzhou experimental animal industry science and technology service platform. In recent years, supported by Soochow University andthe medical college of Soochow University, the Cyrus tang experimental animalbuilding have been building, which containing about 26000 square meters,expected to stock approximately 100000 cages animals. It will accommodate the newneeds of life science research and provide stronger support for Soochow University even surrounding research organizations.
