  • Title: Current status and future options for the development of laboratory animal technology and the training of laboratory animal technicians.
    Author: Crewe G, Austin JC.
    Journal: J S Afr Vet Assoc; 1978 Sep; 49(3):161-5. PubMed ID: 745197.
    Abstract:
    Laboratory animal technology has evolved into a specialised field of expertise which is associated with the production, care and use of laboratory animals in biomedical teaching and research. A survey of laboratory animal facilities and supporting personnel was undertaken to assess the uses of laboratory animals in relation to the administrative and technical staffing of animal facilities. The results of this study indicate that there is a need for training in laboratory animal science at both the technical and professional levels. Options for the development of formal training in laboratory animal technology are reviewed.
