Versuchsanstellung

German to English Science Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-)
In an introduction of a research report (large project) this sentence puzzles me somewhat:
Vorangestellt sind einige allgemeine Ausführungen zur Problemstellung, Zielsetzung und Versuchsanstellung.

What does that word mean here: experimental set-up? planning?

Discussion

Dirgis (X) (asker) Oct 23, 2005:
Thank you Steffen. It sounds southern German or Swiis, the report is actually from Bavaria.
Steffen Walter Oct 23, 2005:
Versuchsanstellung seems to be a less common synonym of Versuchsanordnung.

I found experimental design

or set-up as already suggested by yourself

English version:
Abstract
Animals and experimental design
29 dogs of different breeds, aged from 2 to 11 years old, were under examination. The
glomerular filtration rate was determined using the plasma clearance (P-Cl) of exogenously
applied creatinine. The creatinine was administered to the animals as a marker either (1)
orally or (2) subcutaneously. At the time of administration, the dogs were either (1) fasting or
(2) had just been fed. The study examined intestinal absorption of creatinine based on the
absorption of the known indicator xylose.

Zusammenfassung
Tiere und Versuchsanstellung:
Die Untersuchungen erfolgten an n = 29 Hunden unterschiedlicher Rassen mit einem Alter
von 2 bis 11 Jahren. Mit Hilfe der Plasma-Clearance (P-CL) von exogen zugeführtem
Kreatinin wurde die glomeruläre Filtrationsrate (GFR) der Tiere bestimmt. Kreatinin erhielten
die Tiere als Marker (a) oral oder (b) subcutan verabreicht. Die Hunde waren entweder im (1)
nüchternen oder (2) gefütterten Zustand. Anhand des bekannten Indikators Xylose wurde das
intestinale Absorptionsverhalten von Kreatinin vergleichend geprüft
