9.26.18 Animal Order Reminders

When entering animal requisitions in eAnimal Ordering, please be mindful of filling out the entire requisition form with the desired specifications. If there is a specific strain that should be ordered, include this strain name in the ‘strain’ field rather than in the ‘vendor notes’ section. If the associated catalog number is known for the desired strain, please also include that number in the ‘catalog number’ section just below the vendor selection.

Thank you!
