Folks,
This is a question for those that deal with IACUC, or if you have a good answer
to my question. What is an approved method to disinfect hellbender, or
Necturus, skin prior to a PIT tag insertion or clipping for a tissue sample? If
using something like povidone iodine or chlorhexidine how long should the
solution remain on the skin before a rinse? Thanks.
