Animal Research Facilities & Services

Mispro facilities enable animal research studies for drug discovery and development

At Mispro, our goal is to enable our clients' research for successful preclinical studies. We are committed to providing best-in-class animal research facilities and services for your preclinical research.

Our contract vivarium space and services model allows founding scientists and research teams to conduct ethical in vivo rodent studies in-house, without the costs and operational challenges of managing their own facility.

Animal Research Facilities

Mispro's contract vivarium facilities provide dedicated spaces for housing, care, and management of animals. We offer flexible, fully-equipped and managed lab spaces for safe and reproducible preclinical rodent studies, serving as a turnkey solution for companies conducting preclinical drug development studies.

Our animal research labs have holding rooms that are equipped with individually ventilated cage (IVC) systems, providing a stable and controlled environment for the animals. Animal holding rooms also include biosafety cabinets for cage changes and non-invasive procedures.

Mispro animal research labs include access to the latest equipment and technology, partnering with top service providers to further support your research needs.

We offer flexible options, including shared, semi-private, and private lab spaces, including private suites, allowing companies to scale their preclinical research as needed.

Animal Research Compliance

Mispro empowers you with regulatory compliance oversight to support your preclinical in vivo studies. Here’s how we help with compliance.

Our compliance oversight includes Mispro’s Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC), which reviews study protocols to ensure compliance with ethical and regulatory standards. Mispro’s IACUC expertise is a valuable resource that can enhance the success of your studies. All preclinical research in our vivarium facilities requires approval from our in-house IACUC.

Mispro has a dedicated, in-house compliance team that assists our clients in meeting federal, state, and local regulations, as well as attaining proper licensure that is mandatory for conducting animal studies. Additionally, all of our animal research facilities comply with state and local regulatory requirements.

Mispro’s facility and laboratory animal program are AAALAC accredited. The Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care International (AAALAC) is a global nonprofit organization that sets the standard for humane care in animal research and safe and stable research environments.

Animal Research Services

Along with compliance services, Mispro provides a range of animal research services to help clients conduct effective preclinical in vivo studies.

Animal Husbandry is required for animal research and includes daily care to ensure animals are stable, healthy, and well maintained in a clean environment. Veterinary oversight includes regular monitoring of the health of the animals and vets are on call to diagnose and prescribe for when animals are sick, as well as ensure that animal study protocols are being followed.

Mispro’s animal research facilities offer scientists in vivo technical services support, where skilled veterinary technicians can assist client research teams with tasks related to early-stage rodent studies. Our tech services can also provide on-site training for teams in a variety of areas.
