Experiments: AnimalSheetEntry

Experiments: AnimalSheetEntry#

Here we describe the fields of the experimental template for an animalsheetentry. This is to be used if other available templates do not fit your need, and you need to enter some additional information into the animal sheet. The crawler will transfer the information to the DB AnimalSheetEntry table, from where automated animalsheets will be created.

Note

Note about auto-created entries Entries of this type will also be autocreated if you use templates such as waterdeprivation, behavior, surgery, perfusion. For those you do not need to create manual entries.

Note

Remember you could also use WeightCommander for more convenience.

Modify entry#

You can use WeightCommander to modify the entry directly in DB. A modification message will be pushed to eLabFTW entry.

If you modify the entry directly in eLabFTW and would like this change to be transferred to DB and thus the animalsheet, change the status of the entry to ‘Need to be redone’. This will indicate fo crawler to pull new infos and update the information in DB.

Sign entry#

To sign an animal sheet entry with a legally binding signature, we use a timestamping service. To this end the information in the entry is hashed and send to a server which adds temporal hash. This can be used to prove, that the documented existed in this form at that timepoint.

Warning

There are no take backs. One cannot modify or delete a timestamped experiment. However, one can ammend the information in the entry and re-sign it. Sign entries only after checking those thoroughly.

After signing the entry, on the next run of the crawler the corresponding entry will be marked as signed, with info by whom and a link to this entry in eLabFTW. See AnimalSheets
