| Description: |
The use of laboratory animals constitutes an essential part in quality control of vaccines. The improvement of the conditions in the animal facility and staff-training are increasingly recognized as good ways to ensure that only quality vaccines are released in developing countries. The main focus of this course will be to contribute to the standardization/optimization of the use and the reduction of experimental animals for production and quality control of vaccines. |
