DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Division of Basic Biomedical Sciences of the University of South Dakota School of Medicine (USDSM) is greatly expanding its research faculty using laboratory animals as constructing for a replacement of our animal care facility begins. The primary reason for replacement of the Laboratory Animal Services (LAS) is the inability of the current physical facilities to be adequately renovated to support the growing use of animals and to ear AAALAC, Intl. (Association for the Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care, International) accreditation. The renovated LAS will be located in the basement of the new building on the same site as the existing building housing the current animal facility. This application requests equipment to be used in the new animal care facility and is essential to meeting the institutional goal of excellence in animal care and AALAC accreditation. The specific aim of this request is to upgrade animal facilities used by all animal researchers. The short-term goal for this project is to maintain and support the growing animal intensive research programs. The long-term goal is to achieve AAALAC accreditation. It is expected that AAALAC review for accreditation will be requested within 18 months of completion and occupancy of the new LAS.

描述（由申请人提供）： 南达科他州医学院（USDSM）的基础生物医学科学部门正在使用实验室动物大大扩大其研究人员，因为我们的动物护理设施的替代建设开始。更换实验室动物服务（LAS）的主要原因是当前物理设施无法进行充分翻新，以支持动物使用的增长，并满足AAALAC，Intl.（国际实验动物护理评估和认可协会）认证。 翻新后的LAS将位于新建筑的地下室，与现有动物设施所在的建筑位于同一地点。该申请要求设备用于新的动物护理机构，对于满足动物护理和AALAC认证的卓越机构目标至关重要。 这一要求的具体目的是升级所有动物研究人员使用的动物设施。 该项目的短期目标是维持和支持不断增长的动物密集型研究计划。 长期目标是获得AAALAC认证。预计将在新的阿拉伯国家会计制度完成并投入使用后18个月内要求AAALAC进行认证审查。
