DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Frog: A Laboratory Guide The frog needs no introduction to the zoological labora tory, where it has assisted many generations of students in acquiring their first knowledge Of vertebrate anatomy. As Professor Holmes writes in his Biology of the Frog, They are nice clean animals, easy to dissect and admirably fitted for physiological experimentation. In most localities they are easily collected and may be kept in the laboratory alive. All dealers in biological sup plies handle them both alive and preserved. Natural sources of supply are being augmented constantly by the development of frog-hatcheries to supply the commercial demand. The literature dealing with the frog is voluminous. No attempt is made in this guide to indicate more than a few of the books dealing with the anatomy of the frog which may be useful in supplementing this brief sketch. It has been held by some that the function of a laboratory guide is to ask the student what he finds instead of telling him what he is to find, but, in the experience of many teach ers, the problem type of laboratory manual is apt to waste the time of both instructor and student, and wear out the patience of both. It is the writer's opinion that the needs of the beginning anatomist are best served by presenting him with a straight-forward account of what he is to find in the specimen he is dissecting. If he encounters an anomaly or discovers the writer in a slip, he may be referred to larger manuals and to original contributions, and taste for himself the joys and hardships of research.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA Laboratory Guide to Frog Anatomy is a manual that provides essential information for dissecting frogs. The selection provides comprehensive directions, along with detailed illustrations. The text covers five organ systems, namely skeletal, muscular, circulatory, urogenital, and nervous system. The manual also details a frog's major external and internal features. The book will be of great use to students and instructors of biology related laboratory course.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Laboratory Guide for the Study of the Frog For the introductory study of the structure and physiology of a typical vertebrate, there is no form better adapted than the common frog. The present course is based largely on the well-known works of Huxley, Marshall and Holmes; the author's task has been mainly that of simplification and adaptation, primarily to meet the needs of his own students. These directions are the outcome of eight years' experience in teaching the biology of the frog in the University of Michigan, Syracuse University, the University of Wisconsin and the Michigan State Normal College; the author is naturally much indebted to his former teachers and associates, particularly to Prof. S. J. Holmes. As a general rule, the order of topics in the text should be followed, since it is planned to give a distinct picture of each organ system in its relation to the whole, with the greatest economy of time and material. For pedagogical reasons an exception should be made in the case of certain histological topics: it seems best to begin the microscopical work with the study of some simple tissues, such as the stratum corneum, cartilage, and perhaps also blood, connective tissue and unstriated muscle fiber, before attempting the study of cross-sections of such complex structures as the alimentary canal and the kidney. By following the sequence of topics in this manual, all the study of gross anatomy, excepting the work on the circulatory system and the skeleton, may be done with a single specimen. In connection with the laboratory work the student should read the corresponding portions of Holmes' Biology of the Frog. As a rule the reading on a given topic should follow, rather than precede, the laboratory study of that topic. In case time is limited, the work may be shortened by a judicious omission of topics. The chapters on the eye and the ear, the thyroid glands, and even the skeleton and the muscles, may be omitted without serious detriment to the remainder of the work. In case material is limited, an entire frog may be saved for each student by omitting the special dissection of the venous system.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA respected resource for decades, the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals has been updated by a committee of experts, taking into consideration input from the scientific and laboratory animal communities and the public at large. The Guide incorporates new scientific information on common laboratory animals, including aquatic species, and includes extensive references. It is organized around major components of animal use: Key concepts of animal care and use. The Guide sets the framework for the humane care and use of laboratory animals. Animal care and use program. The Guide discusses the concept of a broad Program of Animal Care and Use, including roles and responsibilities of the Institutional Official, Attending Veterinarian and the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. Animal environment, husbandry, and management. A chapter on this topic is now divided into sections on terrestrial and aquatic animals and provides recommendations for housing and environment, husbandry, behavioral and population management, and more. Veterinary care. The Guide discusses veterinary care and the responsibilities of the Attending Veterinarian. It includes recommendations on animal procurement and transportation, preventive medicine (including animal biosecurity), and clinical care and management. The Guide addresses distress and pain recognition and relief, and issues surrounding euthanasia. Physical plant. The Guide identifies design issues, providing construction guidelines for functional areas; considerations such as drainage, vibration and noise control, and environmental monitoring; and specialized facilities for animal housing and research needs. The Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals provides a framework for the judgments required in the management of animal facilities. This updated and expanded resource of proven value will be important to scientists and researchers, veterinarians, animal care personnel, facilities managers, institutional administrators, policy makers involved in research issues, and animal welfare advocates.
