Working group report on cage processing published
Posted on: 07-02-2011
In animal facilities, such different items like cages, cage lids, wire grids, bottles, bedding, feed, transport trolleys, steam sterilisation containers, work clothes, and other equipment need to be processed. For a safe and efficient processing procedure, technical quality is essential. It is also important that the selected systems can be handled conveniently and all individual components interact smoothly. The working group has made it its aim to provide a guideline for planning, procuring, and operating processing systems and single processing components, and thus wish to address planners, manufacturers, and operators alike.
