Alternative title: Laboratory Guides, Series
Synopsis: A compilation of common experimental procedures, designed to reduce the usage of animals in undergraduate pharmacology practicals. Materials include step-by-step instructions on how to set up standard laboratory preparations used in pharmacology, also aiming to present the biological basis of a pharmacological preparation before using a computer-simulated preparation for an experiment.
