Discard Cages

Cages - Review or Search Cages

Select one or more cages and click Discard action button. Do not use delete to discard cages - learn the difference between discard and delete.

Verify Cages

mLIMS will verify the cages to discard.

mLIMS will default to today. Change the date if desired by clicking in the date field.

If this box is checked, mLIMS will also sacrifice all animals in the cage. If not checked, the animals will be active but without a cage.

By default, mLIMS will change status of the cage to discarded. If sacrificing animals, enter date of death.

Select cause of death (optional) from dropdown, or type in new value to add to the auto-generated dropdown list.

Check this box if a mating is associated with the cage and you want to mark it as complete (retired mating).

Click submit to discard and sacrifice animals (if selected).
