Our facility provides services for housing and experimental techniques on mice. It proposes up-to-date technical support by highly trained staff. 

Following new European regulation, the Zootechnics facility offers multiple animal units and guaranty animal welfare. With a surface of 700m², and 1800 Individually Ventilated Cages, the facility is organized in 4 different zones of various health status: 2 SPF, one quarantine section and a BSL3 zone of 260 m². Specific equipment and laboratories for experimentation and surgeries are available. We offer permanent veterinary monitoring and health inspection with a specialized dedicated veterinarian, as well as ethical evaluation through an animal welfare and ethics comity (C2EA1) and an animal welfare body.

BSL3 Animal Facility
We have in particular a dedicated facility for the housing of infected animals (260 m², 177 isocages, 4 isolators, and safety cabinets). This high security level 3 for infectious project allows the development of infectious models, in particular with mycobacteria, Sars-Cov2 and other lung pathogens. It also offers medical imaging systems for functional monitoring of infected animals. It indeed provides equipment that will allow monitoring of physiological parameters and immune responses in order to develop new therapeutic options for the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of infections. In a very novel manner in confined environment, equipment such as a cell sorter, flow cytometer, vibratome, inverted/ upright multiphoton microscope and spinning disk are available. Our facility is involved in technology development and innovation, both through collaborations and through services and specific equipment.
