Nagano
Animal facility & animal records
Integrated management of the animals, their environment and day-to-day operations, connected to research projects, ethics authorizations and billing.
A complete record
Individual records and groups of animals
Nagano keeps a record for each animal or group of animals, with identification, history, follow-up notes, measurements and associated documents.
-
Identification and tracking
Multiple identifiers, markings and QR codes provide access to each animal's strain, project and cage.
-
Record notes and documents
Reusable text macros speed up note-taking, with anatomical annotations, attachments and follow-up tasks.
-
Measurements and history
Dated measurements, trends and a history of movements and interventions, all in one record.
-
Batch management and interventions
Apply treatments and movements to entire groups. An animal extracted from a group retains its origin and inherited notes.

Ethics authorizations and subject counts
Ethics authorizations define the subjects permitted for a project. Nagano links those authorizations to animal-facility activity so used and remaining quantities can be followed, according to the applicable authorization rules and periods.
Subjects used
Real-time count in the animal facility.
Remaining quantities
Follow-up of limits and authorization periods.

Resources in the service of research
Resource use and billing
Animal housing, the use of cages and equipment, staff procedures and other resources consumed can produce billable items tied to research projects. Nagano can track them and connect them to billing, according to the institution's rates and rules.
