The ARC has recently updated the Handling and Expiration Guidelines for Diluted Drugs and Fluids for Use in Research Animals.
We encourage you to review these guidelines with your research team to ensure full understanding and compliance. In particular, please note that all drugs requiring dilution must be diluted and maintained using sterile technique, must be labeled, and expire 30 days from the date of dilution.
