Animal science-related experiments are dependent on several laboratory conditions that are to be studied. This book offers basic knowledge of animal science labs and their maintenance. We attempted to portray some of the monitoring techniques that give an idea of animal science experiments. We also gave a detailed explanation of some of the principles that govern the lab that was built to perform experiments on animals. This book explains the basic concepts of anesthesia and its role in conducting experiments. We explained the containment procedures with special emphasis on transgenic animals. Some of the methods that make the transportation of animals secure are also given in this book.
