  • Why It Is Critical

    The health status of laboratory animals directly impacts the accuracy, reproducibility, and validity of scientific data. Pathogen infections can not only cause animal morbidity or mortality but also induce subtle physiological, immunological, or behavioral changes that confound experimental results. Regular health monitoring ensures early detection of potential risks, maintaining research integrity and compliance with international standards.

    為何至關重要

    實驗動物的健康狀態直接影響科學數據的準確性、可重複性及實驗結論的有效性。病原體感染不僅會導致動物發病或死亡，更可能引發隱性的生理、免疫或行為改變，從而干擾實驗結果。定期健康監測能及早發現潛在風險，確保研究符合國際規範。

  • Common Pathogen Monitoring Methods

    Serology: Detects antibodies in blood to screen for viral and bacterial infections.

    Parasitology: Examines skin scrapings or feces for internal and external parasites.

    Bacteriology: Cultures swab samples to identify specific pathogenic bacteria.

    Molecular Diagnostics (PCR): Uses high-sensitivity techniques to detect pathogen nucleic acids, ideal for early infection screening.

    病原體常見監測方法

    血清學檢測： 檢測血液中的抗體，用於篩查病毒及細菌感染。

    寄生蟲檢查： 通過皮屑刮取或糞便檢查體內外寄生蟲。

    細菌培養： 對拭子樣本進行培養，鑑定特定病原菌。

    分子生物學檢測 (PCR)： 利用高靈敏度技術檢測病原體核酸，適用於早期感染篩查。

  • We offer lab animal health monitoring protocols for multiple research animal species, designed for both routine surveillance and disease diagnosis. Our coverage includes: rats, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, non-human primates, rabbits, poultry, dogs, cats, ferrets, and more.

    Our testing laboratory conducts health monitoring on laboratory animals based on various testing standards, such as Chinese National Standards (GB), VAF, and the European standard FELASA. Our services cover common parasites, bacteria, and viruses to meet the diverse quality monitoring requirements of both domestic and international clients.

    我們提供針對多種實驗動物物種的健康監測方案，適用於常規監測及疾病診斷。涵蓋物種包括：大鼠、小鼠、地鼠、豚鼠、非人靈長類（猴）、兔、禽類、犬、貓、雪貂等。

    我們的檢測室基於多種檢測標準，如中國國標、VAF、歐標 FELASA 等對實驗動物進行健康監測，涵蓋常見寄生蟲、細菌和病毒項目，以滿足國內外客戶對實驗動物的不同質量監測要求。

  • Research Animal Health Profile

    實驗動物健康檔案

    The industry commonly recognizes three distinct international and leading frameworks for defining animal health status to meet diverse research requirements: China's National Standard (GB), Charles River's proprietary VAF standard, and the European FELASA guidelines.

    業界普遍採用三種不同的國際及領先框架來界定實驗動物健康狀態，以滿足多樣化的研究需求：中國國家標準 (GB)、Charles River 專有的 VAF 標準，以及歐洲 FELASA 指南。

    SPF Standard (China National Standard)

    SPF 標準 (中國國家標準)

    Reference Standard

    Complies with GB 14922-2022 "Laboratory animal—Microbiological and parasitical standards and monitoring".

    參考標準：

    符合 GB 14922-2022《實驗動物 微生物、寄生蟲學等級及監測》。

    Key Characteristics

    This is the mandatory baseline for domestic research in China. It defines specific pathogen-free status based on a nationally unified list of excluded agents.

    主要特點：

    這是中國國內研究的強制性基準。它基於國家統一的排除病原體清單，定義了無特定病原體狀態。

    VAF Standard (Charles River Definition)

    VAF 標準 (Charles River 定義)

    Reference Standard

    Adheres to Charles River Laboratories’ proprietary VAF (Virus Antibody Free) specifications, representing an industry-leading premium tier.

    參考標準：

    遵循 Charles River 實驗室專有的 VAF（無病毒抗體）等級，代表行業領先的高級別標準。

    Key Characteristics

    Features exclusion criteria strictly more rigorous than national SPF standards. It covers additional pathogens not included in the basic GB list, strengthens viral detection and exclusion, and reduces interference with experiments.

    主要特點：

    其排除標準比國家標準 SPF 更為嚴格。它涵蓋了 GB 列表未包含的額外病原體，加強了病毒的檢測與排除，降低了對實驗的干擾。

    FELASA Standard (European Guidelines)

    FELASA 標準 (歐洲指南)

    Reference Standard

    Aligns with the FELASA (Federation of European Laboratory Animal Science Associations) Recommendations, the most rigorous and harmonized framework in Europe.

    參考標準：

    符合 FELASA（歐洲實驗動物科學協會聯合會）建議，這是歐洲最嚴格且協調統一的健康監測框架。

    Key Characteristics

    Emphasizes standardized testing frequencies, robust sentinel animal strategies, and a unified list of recommended pathogens across Europe. It ensures high comparability of data across multi-center international studies.

    主要特點：

    強調標準化的檢測頻率、嚴謹的哨兵動物策略以及全歐洲統一的推薦病原體列表。確保多中心國際研究數據的高度可比性。

  • Special Note:

    Charles River’s animal models are available to meet all

    three of the aforementioned standards.

    特別提示：

    Charles River 提供的動物模型可滿足上述全部三項標準。
