Envigo, a leading provider of nonclinical contract research services and research models, is investing in an expansion of its research model surgical facility at its Livermore, California site in response to increased market demand from West Coast biopharmaceutical customers.
Intensive care unit (ICU) recovery chambers and advanced ventilator and microscopic technologies — already in place at Envigo’s Indianapolis site — will be installed at Livermore. In addition, Envigo will fit environmentally friendly individual ventilated cages (IVCs) for all models and state-of-the-art RFID and software surgical tracking systems from UID Identification Solutions, providing vital monitoring of animal models from surgery entry through customer delivery.
The expansion reflects Envigo’s commitment to advancing animal welfare and data quality across its surgical operations, and UID’s growing role as the RFID infrastructure layer in high-throughput research facilities.
