The department of Pharmacology at our institution takes pride in providing the best possible facilities for conducting in-vivo (animal) experiments in a responsible and ethical manner. We have a centralized animal house that is approved by the Committee for Control and Supervision of Experiments on Animals (CCSEA) with the registration number Reg. No 1372/PO/ReBi/S/10/CPCSEA. This approval ensures that all animal experiments are conducted in compliance with the ethical guidelines and regulations laid down by the CCSEA. The institute has the facility of Individually ventilated caging (IVC) systems for both rats and mice in place for housing the laboratory animals to reduce the possibility of contamination.
