Construction and technological modifications in the menageries of the Institute of Physiology of the Czech Academy of Sciences (the CAS) and the Institute of Microbiology of the CAS – Reconstruction of the current menageries in building G

The implementation was completed in 2024

A completely new layout was designed in the middle part of Pavilion G. We have built two departments for breeding laboratory mice and rabbits. We also built a feed warehouse in this tract. As part of the reconstruction, we also solved the transport of dirty bedding, which will now be secured by a pair of screw conveyors directly into a container located outside at the northeast facade of the B-wing.

The central part of the pavilion also got a new look, where new rooms in the longitudinal tracts were added to the original main corridor. There is, for example, an operating or breeding room. The staff also has a new common room.

As part of the building modifications, we added three elevators to the southwest façade used to transport people and cargo. It will thus enable the direct supply of menagerie premises. Furthermore, we built a new ground floor extension of the air conditioning engine room at the point of connecting the neck between buildings G and Gs.
