Together, these three seminal reference works provide all the information needed to work with pigs in laboratory settings. For three decades, Swine in the Laboratory has been the most respected practical technical guide for medical and veterinary researchers using swine as experimental animals. Sponsored by the American College of Laboratory Animal Medicine (ACLAM), it continues to be the most authoritative source of scientific and technical information on the use of domestic and miniature swine in research.Anatomy and Histology of the Pig is the first guide specific to swine since 1982. The high-quality, detailed full-color illustrations are accompanied by written material specific to each porcine anatomic section, with English-labeled terms for the various anatomic structures. The book covers all the major areas of interest in swine, including cardiovascular, digestive, neurologic, and thoracic structures. Differences between domestic and miniature pigs are discussed and a full-color histology section concludes the book.Finally, the second edition of The Minipig in Biomedical Research is a comprehensive resource for research scientists on the use of the minipig in basic and applied biomedical research. Written by experts in the field, coverage extends from the minipig’s origins, anatomy, genetics, immunology, pathology and physiology to its welfare, health, and husbandry; practical dosing and examination procedures; surgical techniques; and all areas of toxicity testing and the uses of the minipig as a disease model. The book represents the state of the art, recognising the growing influence of Artificial Intelligence, and where appropriate, relevant databases are referenced.

For two decades, Swine in the Laboratory: Surgery, Anesthesia, and Experimental Techniques has been the most respected practical technical guide for medical and veterinary researchers using swine as experimental animals. Extensively updated and expanded since the publication of the second edition in 2007 and now sponsored by the American College of Laboratory Animal Medicine (ACLAM), it continues to be the most authoritative source of scientific and technical information on the use of domestic and miniature swine in research.Additions to the Third Edition Include:New chapters on toxicology, transgenics, cancer models, and necropsy techniquesAn overview of porcine models that were not included in the previous editionUpdates to chapters on the various body systemsContributions from 25 new coauthors, as well as a new coeditorSignificant expansions to the accompanying downloadable resources, including new normal data on farm and minipig breeds, videos on training swine and surgical procedures, updated anatomical imaging, and a colored histological atlasDetailed sections on anesthesia, analgesia, and perioperative care present the best current practices for using swine in experimental surgery. Providing a deepened reference of the most current information and best techniques in an increasingly popular field since the publication of the first edition, this book is a vital tool in conducting the best possible research using porcine models.
