Standard Construction For Barrier Housing Facilities Of Laboratory Animal

In this article, after consulting the literature and spot survey in large, I analyzed the status in quo of construction and summarized the main problems about Barrier Housing Facilities of Laboratory Animal (BHFLA). Combining with my own experience, I also gave some countermeasures about standard construction of BHFLA.Current status of domestic construction of BHFLA is as followed: It was from 1980's that domestic laboratory animal project came into blossom. During the ninth "Five-Year-Plan", favored by related legislations and funds, the construction of BHFLA developed rapidly. Since the tenth "Five-Year-Plan", the State and regions established and strengthened the legalized administrative system, carried out the license system of laboratory animal. And consequently, further boosted the development of construction of BHFLA.Major faults in domestic construction of BHFLA existed in the following aspects: A few of organizations were indifferent in regarding the construction of BHFLA and paid little efforts to it. Lacking of specialized designers and standard instructions together with unjustified techniques in construction, the "morbid project" emerged frequently. The design of the case was unscientific, and the business was lake of unified administration.Countermeasures to standard construction of BHFLA in domestic are as follows:Before execution, in order to make full use of the local resources and reduce the cost, the executor need to argument on the necessity and feasibility of BHFLA. Employ experienced manager in the field of BHFLA to take charge of the project. And supply the scientific and reasonable requirements of design. The quality of the project must be controlled by the expert of BHFLA and the superintendent.The designers must primarily take into account on the following key factors: reasonable layout, resisting contamination, keeping continuous clean ventilation, saving energy, keeping temperature, humidity and pressure maintenance, preparing fire control.The constructors must be working strictly in accordance with the drawings , enhancing administration, standardizing operation, and ensuring for the quality of project.The department of administration in our country should further enhance education and propaganda, and heighten the important cognition of BHFLA to the scientific worker, especially to the leader of the concerned organization. Enact 《Constructional Code about the Housing Facilities of Laboratory Animal》, which is corresponding to the national standard 《Laboratory Animal-Requirements of Environment and Housing Facilities》(GB 14925-2001). At last, the license system of management with the domestic business of laboratory animal case is necessary.
