DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The general objective of this project is to upgrade cage wash support service equipment for two satellite buildings housing laboratory animals in the Division of Laboratory Animal Resources at Stony Brook University (SBU). The University has both short and long-term goals to improve the animal resource physical plant and to provide the equipment necessary for future facility expansion. It is also vital to keep all facilities functioning in compliance with regulatory and AAALAC guidelines. This project addresses an essential short-term facility goal to replace the aging cage and rack washing equipment in the Psychology A and Life Sciences buildings, through minor renovation and the purchase of major equipment. Program expansion in molecular biology, genetics, cancer and translational research has been identified by the Dean of the School of Medicine as four major areas for research development at Stony Brook University in the next five years. The existing cage and rack washers in these two facilities are over 22 years old and were both completely rebuilt in the early 1990's. The existing equipment is long past its useful lifespan and we are now spending considerable time and money to keep them up and running. Funds from this application would purchase capital equipment (two cage and rack washers) and perform the minimal facility renovations for existing equipment removal and installation of new replacement units.

描述（由申请方提供）：本项目的总体目标是升级斯托尼布鲁克大学（SBU）实验动物资源部两个饲养实验动物的卫星楼的笼清洗支持服务设备。该大学有短期和长期的目标，以改善动物资源物理工厂，并提供必要的设备，为未来的设施扩建。同样重要的是保持所有设施的运作符合监管和AAALAC指导方针。 该项目涉及一个基本的短期设施目标，即通过小规模翻修和购买主要设备，更换心理学A和生命科学大楼中老化的笼子和架子清洗设备。在分子生物学，遗传学，癌症和转化研究的程序扩展已被确定为在斯托尼布鲁克大学在未来五年的研究发展的四个主要领域的医学院院长。这两个设施中现有的笼式和机架式洗衣机已有22年以上的历史，并在20世纪90年代初完全重建。现有的设备早已超过其使用寿命，我们现在正在花费大量的时间和金钱来保持它们的正常运行。该申请的资金将用于购买资本设备（两个笼式和机架式洗衣机），并对现有设备进行最低限度的设施翻修，拆除和安装新的更换设备。
