At QPS, we utilize in vivo animal models, including rodents, rabbits, and mini-pigs, as they are among the most efficient and clinically relevant approaches for studying wound healing. Our skilled veterinarians perform surgeries to test wound healing, ensuring comprehensive post-operative monitoring of clinical observations, body weight, and food consumption.
Wounds are regularly measured for assessment of the extent of healing. At the completion of the in-life experimentation, our board-certified pathologist (DACVP) performs histopathology examination of the wound tissues. All studies are reviewed by IACUC in compliance of animal welfare requirements.
