WT animals were from Charles River France and were maintained in the MNHN mouse facility which is officially certified by the French National Animal well being committee.
Social well being appeared unimpaired in both groups.
The DHR well was chosen for two reasons.
But first, the BP well is capped, maybe?
The Burger well is located in the Chukchi Basin, part of the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf (OCS).
This implies that the NG wells are responsible for flow regulation in the NG system.
Furthermore, a lack of relationship between feather CORT and the behaviors we measured suggests that relying solely upon behavioral measures of stress to assess captive animal well-being can be misleading, an assertion supported by other studies [19], [20], [39], [40], [43].
The animal studies usually evaluate a limited set of outcome parameters, and these parameters typically interrogate the mode of action of the drug more than assessing the overall joint health and animal well-being (that is, 'exploratory' rather than 'confirmatory' studies [ 125]).
It is important that animal holding space is designed to ensure animal well-being, meet research requirements, be cleanable and easily maintained, and minimize experimental variables.
