Air Purification and Filtration in Animal Laboratories: Guarding the Pure Line of Defense for Scientific Research
In the field of animal experiments, every subtle environmental factor can have a profound impact on the experimental results. Today, as Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd., a manufacturer specializing in the production of purification equipment, we will delve into the crucial aspect of air purification and filtration in animal laboratories, revealing the importance and technical secrets behind it for you.
I. Why Animal Laboratories Require Strict Air Purification and Filtration
(A) Ensuring the Health of Experimental Animals
The immune systems of experimental animals are relatively fragile, and poor air quality can easily trigger various diseases. Microorganisms in the air, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungal spores, once inhaled by animals, may lead to respiratory infections, pneumonia, and other diseases, affecting the normal physiological functions of animals and the accuracy of experimental data. For example, in the experiment of gene-edited mice, if there are miscellaneous bacteria in the air, it may infect the mice and interfere with the experimental results related to gene expression, causing months of research efforts to go to waste.
(B) Ensuring the Accuracy of Experimental Results
Experiments in animal laboratories often have extremely high requirements for the environment, and even minor fluctuations in air quality can interfere with the experimental process. Dust particles in the air may carry impurities and contaminate experimental samples, leading to cell contamination in cell culture experiments and causing deviations in experimental data. In drug research and development experiments, animals inhaling unclean air may affect the drug metabolism process, mislead the evaluation of drug efficacy, and in severe cases, may even lead to the wrong research and development direction.
(C) Complying with Regulations and Industry Standards
With the continuous improvement of requirements for the welfare of experimental animals and the quality of experiments, strict regulations and industry standards have been formulated both at home and abroad to standardize the environment of animal laboratories. For example, the national standard "Experimental Animal Environment and Facilities" in China clearly stipulates the air cleanliness and other indicators of animal laboratories at different levels. Failing to meet these standards may not only result in the experimental results not being recognized but also may face legal risks.
II. Common Air Pollutants in Animal Laboratories
(A) Microbial Pollutants
Bacteria are one of the common microbial pollutants in animal laboratories, such as Staphylococcus and Escherichia coli. They widely exist in the environment and can enter the laboratory through the entry and exit of personnel, items, and the ventilation system. Viruses are also dangerous. For example, the murine hepatitis virus can spread rapidly among animal populations, causing large-scale epidemics. Fungal spores cannot be ignored either. They have strong vitality and can multiply in large numbers under suitable conditions, polluting the laboratory air.
(B) Particulate Matter Pollutants
Particulate matter in the air includes dust, pollen, hair, etc. These particulate matters not only affect the air cleanliness but may also serve as carriers of microorganisms, increasing the risk of pollution. In animal laboratories, the activities of animals will stir up a large amount of hair and dander. If not filtered in a timely manner, they will suspend in the air, interfering with experimental operations and posing a threat to the health of animals.
(C) Harmful Gas Pollutants
The metabolism of animals will produce harmful gases such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide. If these gases accumulate in the laboratory, they will not only have a pungent odor but also irritate the respiratory tract of animals, affecting the health of animals and the experimental results. In addition, the organic waste gases volatilized from some chemical reagents used in the laboratory, such as formaldehyde and benzene, also pose a hazard to the experimental environment and the health of personnel.

Standard Humidity in Animal Laboratories: Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd. Helps Create a Suitable Environment for Animal Survival and Experiments
Animal laboratories, as crucial places for conducting various animal experiments, have environmental conditions that play a vital and decisive role in the health, physiological state of experimental animals, and the accuracy of experimental results. Among these, humidity is an important environmental factor that cannot be ignored. As a professional constructor, Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd. deeply understands and strictly adheres to the standard humidity requirements for animal laboratories during the construction process, and is committed to creating an ideal experimental environment for scientific researchers.
I. The Significant Impact of Humidity on Experimental Animals
A. Impact on Animal Health
Appropriate humidity helps maintain the normal physiological functions of experimental animals. Excessively high humidity will make the animals' perceived body temperature rise, and it will be difficult for them to dissipate heat, leading to heat stress reactions in animals, a decrease in immunity, and an increased susceptibility to diseases. For example, in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment, mice are prone to symptoms such as difficulty breathing and decreased appetite, and microorganisms like bacteria and molds are more likely to breed, increasing the risk of animals getting sick. Conversely, too low humidity will dry out the respiratory mucosa of animals, causing respiratory diseases. For instance, rats may experience problems such as bleeding and cracking of the nasal cavity and respiratory mucosa.
B. Interference with Animal Behavior and Physiological Rhythms
Changes in humidity can affect the behavior and physiological rhythms of animals. Some animals are sensitive to humidity. When the humidity is not suitable, their activity levels, food intake, and sleep time will all change. For example, rabbits will become restless and less active in a high-humidity environment; while in a low-humidity environment, their fur will become rough, and they will increase grooming behavior. These changes in behavior and physiological rhythms may interfere with the accuracy of experimental results and cause deviations in experimental data.
C. Impact on the Accuracy of Experimental Results
For some experiments that require precise control of the physiological state of animals, fluctuations in humidity may have a significant impact on the experimental results. In drug research and development experiments, the physiological state of animals has an important influence on the processes of drug absorption, metabolism, and excretion. Humidity changes may alter the physiological state of animals, thus affecting the evaluation of drug efficacy. For another example, in genetic experiments, inappropriate humidity may affect the gene expression and genetic stability of animals, resulting in unreliable experimental results.
II. Standard Humidity Requirements for Different Types of Experimental Animals
A. Rodents
Rodents such as mice and rats are the most commonly used experimental animals in animal laboratories. The suitable relative humidity range for them is generally between 40% and 70%. Within this humidity range, the physiological functions of rodents can be normally exerted, and their health conditions are good. For example, when cultivating and researching transgenic mice, maintaining appropriate humidity helps with the growth, development, and reproduction of the mice, ensuring the smooth progress of the experiment.
B. Rabbits
Rabbits have relatively strict requirements for humidity. The suitable relative humidity is generally between 40% and 60%. Excessively high humidity is likely to cause skin diseases and respiratory diseases in rabbits because rabbits have long and dense fur, and bacteria and fungi are likely to breed in a high-humidity environment. While too low humidity may dry out the skin and respiratory mucosa of rabbits, causing discomfort.
C. Dogs and Primates
The suitable relative humidity range for dogs is usually between 30% and 70%, and for primates such as rhesus monkeys, the suitable relative humidity is generally between 40% and 65%. These larger experimental animals have a relatively wider adaptability range to humidity, but it is still necessary to keep the humidity within an appropriate range to ensure their health and the accuracy of the experiments. For example, when conducting cardiovascular disease experiments on dogs, appropriate humidity helps maintain the normal function of the dog's cardiovascular system and reduces the interference of environmental factors on the experimental results.

Principles of Animal Laboratory Layout: Constructing an Experimental Space Combining Science and Humanity
In the field of life science research, animal laboratories play a pivotal role. From basic medical research to drug development, from exploring disease mechanisms to bioproduction, animal experiments are an indispensable part. A rational and scientific layout of an animal laboratory not only improves experimental efficiency and ensures the accuracy of experimental results but also reflects the importance attached to the welfare of experimental animals and ensures that the entire experimental process complies with ethical norms and safety standards. As Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd., which has been deeply engaged in the purification equipment field for many years, today we will analyze in detail the key principles of the layout of animal laboratories.
I. Clear Functional Zoning to Meet Experimental Requirements
(I) Experimental Operation Area
This is the core area of an animal laboratory, undertaking various experimental operation tasks such as animal dissection, physiological index detection, sample collection and processing. This area should have good ventilation conditions to eliminate odors, aerosols and other pollutants generated during the experiment, ensuring the health of experimental personnel. At the same time, it should be equipped with complete experimental benches, sinks, lighting equipment and various experimental instruments, and the layout should conform to the operation process to facilitate efficient operation by experimental personnel. For example, the dissection table should be close to the sink for easy rinsing of instruments and specimens; the placement of instrument equipment should consider operation convenience and maintenance space to avoid mutual interference.
(II) Animal Breeding Area
The layout of the animal breeding area is directly related to the quality of life of experimental animals and the reliability of experimental results. Different species and strains of animals have different requirements for environmental conditions (such as temperature, humidity, lighting, noise, etc.), so they should be bred in separate zones according to their characteristics. Generally, rodents, rabbits, dogs, etc. should be bred separately, and each area should have an independent ventilation, temperature control and lighting system. The placement of breeding cages should be convenient for daily observation, feeding, cleaning and replacement, and at the same time, ensure that animals have enough space to move around to meet the requirements of animal welfare. In addition, set up reasonable passageways and operation spaces to facilitate the entry and exit of experimental and breeding personnel and reduce the disturbance to animals.
(III) Auxiliary Function Area
The auxiliary function area includes animal quarantine rooms, isolation rooms, washing and disinfection rooms, material storage rooms, etc. The quarantine room is used to conduct health checks on newly introduced animals to prevent the introduction of foreign diseases into the laboratory and should be set up near the entrance of animals into the laboratory. The isolation room is used to isolate sick or suspected sick animals to avoid the spread of diseases, and its location should be relatively independent and equipped with strict disinfection and protection measures. The washing and disinfection room is responsible for cleaning and disinfecting breeding cages, experimental instruments, etc., and should be equipped with special cleaning equipment, disinfection equipment and drainage systems to ensure efficient and thorough cleaning and disinfection work. The material storage room is used to store animal feed, bedding, medicines, reagents and other materials, and the materials should be stored in categories according to their characteristics, kept well - ventilated, dry and clean to prevent material deterioration and cross - contamination.
II. Reasonable Flow Design to Avoid Cross - Contamination
(I) Personnel Flow
The movement routes of experimental personnel, breeding personnel, logistics support personnel, etc. in the laboratory should be clear and distinct to avoid mutual crossing. Generally speaking, experimental personnel should enter the experimental operation area from the office area through hygiene channels such as shoe - changing, clothing - changing and hand - washing to reduce the introduction of external pollutants into the experimental area. Breeding personnel are mainly responsible for the daily work in the animal breeding area, and their movement routes should revolve around the breeding area, minimizing unnecessary contact with the experimental operation area. When logistics support personnel enter the laboratory for equipment maintenance, material distribution and other work, they should also follow specific flow lines to ensure that the normal progress of the experiment is not disturbed and to avoid introducing pollution.
(II) Animal Flow
The entire process of animals from being purchased into the laboratory, entering the breeding area, then to the experimental operation area, and finally handling the animals after the experiment should have a reasonable flow plan. Newly purchased animals should first enter the quarantine room for quarantine, and after passing the quarantine, they enter the breeding area through a special passage. During the experiment, according to the experimental needs, animals are transferred from the breeding area to the experimental operation area. After the experiment, if the animals need to be continuously bred and observed, they are sent back to the breeding area; if the animals have completed their experimental mission, they need to be disposed of harmlessly in accordance with relevant regulations, and the disposal process should also follow a specific route to prevent animal carcasses and waste from polluting the laboratory environment.
(III) Item Flow
The flow of items in the laboratory, such as feed, bedding, medicines, reagents, experimental instruments, etc., should also be carefully designed. When items enter the laboratory, they should go through strict inspection and disinfection procedures, and then be stored in corresponding storage areas according to their categories. When in use, they are taken from the storage area and sent to the experimental operation area or the animal breeding area. After use, if they can be reused, they should be sent to the washing and disinfection room for processing; if they are disposable items or waste, they should be classified, collected and processed according to the medical waste disposal process to avoid the random flow of items within the laboratory and causing cross - contamination.
III. Optimized Environmental Control to Ensure Experimental Conditions
(I) Temperature and Humidity Control
Temperature and humidity have a significant impact on the physiological state of experimental animals and experimental results. The suitable temperature and humidity ranges for different species of experimental animals vary. For example, the temperature of the mouse breeding environment is generally controlled at 20 - 26°C, and the relative humidity is controlled at 40% - 70%; the temperature of the dog breeding environment should be maintained at 18 - 22°C, and the relative humidity is 50% - 60%. Therefore, when laying out the animal laboratory, the installation location and coverage of the air - conditioning system and ventilation equipment should be fully considered to ensure that the temperature and humidity in each area can be accurately regulated to meet the needs of experimental animals.
(II) Ventilation and Air Purification
Good ventilation and air purification are the keys to ensuring the air quality in the animal laboratory. On the one hand, through reasonable ventilation design, harmful gases, odors, aerosols and other pollutants generated during the experiment are timely discharged to keep the indoor air fresh; on the other hand, high - efficiency air purification equipment is used to filter dust particles, microorganisms, etc. in the air to provide a clean air environment for experimental animals. In terms of layout, the location of air vents should be reasonably set to avoid ventilation dead corners; the selection and installation of air purification equipment should be scientifically planned according to the area of the laboratory, functional zoning and air quality requirements to ensure that the air purification effect meets the standards.
(III) Lighting and Noise Control
Lighting and noise also affect the behavior and physiological state of experimental animals. The animal breeding area should provide appropriate lighting intensity and lighting cycle to simulate the natural environment and promote the normal physiological rhythm of animals. For example, rodents generally require a lighting cycle of 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness. At the same time, effective sound - insulation measures should be taken to reduce the interference of external noise on experimental animals, such as using sound - insulating materials to build laboratory walls and doors and windows, and reasonably arranging the location of equipment to avoid the noise generated by equipment operation from causing stress to animals.
IV. Adequate Safety Protection to Ensure Personnel and Environmental Safety
(I) Biosafety Protection
Animal laboratories involve a variety of experimental animals, some of which may carry pathogens, posing a biosafety risk. Therefore, when laying out the laboratory, biosafety protection principles should be followed, and corresponding protection facilities should be set up. For example, for high - pathogenic animal experiments, biosafety level 3 or 4 laboratories should be established, equipped with independent negative - pressure ventilation systems, high - efficiency air - filtering devices, disinfection equipment, etc. to ensure that pathogens during the experiment do not leak into the external environment. At the same time, experimental personnel should be equipped with corresponding protective equipment, such as protective clothing, masks, gloves, goggles, etc., and dressing rooms and shower rooms should be set up at the entrance of the laboratory to facilitate personal protection and cleaning for experimental personnel when entering and leaving the laboratory.
(II) Fire Safety
Fire safety is an important aspect that cannot be ignored in animal laboratories. The laboratory should be equipped with fire - fighting facilities in accordance with fire - safety regulations, such as fire extinguishers, fire hydrants, fire automatic alarm systems, emergency lighting and evacuation indication signs. In terms of layout, ensure that the fire - fighting passage is unobstructed, and it is strictly prohibited to stack items on the passage. At the same time, electrical equipment, flammable and explosive items, etc. in the laboratory should be managed and stored reasonably to avoid fire hazards. For example, electrical equipment should meet explosion - proof requirements, and flammable and explosive items should be stored in special fire - and explosion - proof storage cabinets and marked with obvious warning signs.
(III) Chemical Safety
Various chemical reagents, such as anesthetics, disinfectants, drugs, etc., are often used in animal laboratories. If these chemical reagents are not properly managed, they may cause harm to personnel and the environment. Therefore, when laying out the laboratory, a special chemical reagent storage area should be set up, and the reagents should be stored in categories according to their properties, such as flammable, explosive, toxic and corrosive reagents should be stored separately, and corresponding protective measures should be taken. At the same time, fume hoods, eyewashers, emergency shower devices and other emergency facilities should be equipped in the experimental operation area to deal with accidental situations such as chemical reagent leakage and splashing in a timely manner to ensure personnel safety.
V. Balancing Flexibility and Expandability to Adapt to Future Development Needs
With the continuous development of life science research and the continuous progress of technology, the functions and needs of animal laboratories will also change. Therefore, when designing the layout, the flexibility and expandability of the laboratory should be fully considered. On the one hand, a certain adjustable space should be reserved in the space layout to facilitate the transformation and adjustment of the laboratory in the later stage according to the increase of experimental projects or the change of experimental processes, such as adding experimental benches, instrument equipment, or re - dividing functional areas, etc. On the other hand, in terms of infrastructure construction, the needs of future technology upgrades should be considered. For example, the power supply system, network communication system, ventilation and air - conditioning system, etc. should have a certain amount of redundancy to meet the operating requirements of new equipment and avoid restricting the development of the laboratory due to insufficient infrastructure.
