Descripción general

  Experimental animals refer to animals that are artificially bred for scientific research purposes, primarily used in bioassays, disease diagnosis, biopharmaceutical development, teaching, and other scenarios. Common types include small experimental animals such as mice, rats, and rabbits, large experimental animals such as dogs, sheep, and pigs, as well as other experimental organisms such as fish, birds, and frogs. In clinical research on human disease prevention and treatment, due to ethical and practical constraints, direct human trials are not feasible. Thus, experimental animals serve as indispensable research vehicles and play a critical role in related scientific work.

  Animal experimental techniques are essential foundational skills for clinical medical researchers, encompassing core components such as experimental animal selection, experimental animal handling, and animal model construction. The complete technical system also includes modules such as aseptic techniques, pre-experiment planning and material preparation, and post-experiment animal management. Anesthesia of experimental animals, hair removal, and disinfection of the surgical area are key preparatory steps before animal surgery.

  Hair removal in experimental animals is a crucial part of skin preparation for animal surgery. The area of hair removal should extend beyond the surgical operation zone to ensure an aseptic environment and clear visibility during the procedure. Common hair removal methods include clipping, shaving, chemical depilation, and plucking. Chemical depilation, which relies on chemical depilatory agents to remove animal fur, is a frequently used method for aseptic surgery in animals. Experimental chemical depilatory agents are mainly divided into two categories, designed for large animals such as dogs and small animals such as rabbits and mice. Typically, depilatory agents for large animals have higher concentrations of active ingredients.

  Experimental Animal Depilatory Agent (Ⅱ), primarily composed of sodium sulfide, starch, sugar, glycerin, borax, and other main ingredients, is suitable for hair removal in small experimental animals. This reagent is intended solely for scientific research purposes and must not be used in clinical diagnosis or other non-research scenarios.

Procedure (For Reference Only)

1. Trim the fur at the intended surgical site, then use a cotton ball to apply a thin layer of the depilatory agent to the area where hair removal is desired.

2. After 2–3 minutes, rinse off the removed fur with warm water, dry the area with gauze, and apply a layer of vaseline.

Precautions

1. Cooperative animals should undergo hair removal before anesthesia, while uncooperative animals should be treated after anesthetic induction or under basal anesthesia.

2. Avoid using excessive amounts of depilatory agent or leaving it on for too long to minimize skin irritation.

3. For your safety and health, please wear a lab coat and disposable gloves during operation.

4. Use the reagent as soon as possible after opening to avoid affecting subsequent experimental results.
