Environmental Enrichment for Rodents

Rodents are the most widely used animal model in the world of biomedical research. When introducing enviromental enrichment products in the laboratory, costs and the practical use of enviromental enrichment items are also important. Objects introduced into the cage should be stimulating for the lab animals, but they should also be easy to remove, clean, and replace, so that personnel are willing to work with them. If it is clear to those responsible for animals that environmental enrichment is beneficial to the animals, their motivation to work with and to improve the enviromental enrichment program should increase.

Let’s take a look at some Environmental Enrichment items that might work for the rodents in your facility.
