[edit] Uses
Laboratory Five was headed by Colonel Basque Grand (was promoted to Brigadier General after Ishbal War). The experiments in it were chimeras and the Philosopher's Stone. In Laboratory Five, chimeras that were half-human, half-beast were formed (Martel, Dorchet, Loa, Tucker, etc.). The "defunct" Laboratory Five was also a holding place for the Homonculi's experiments. Also was a holding place for supposedly executed people such as Zolf J. Kimblee, The Slicer Brothers (#48), Barry the Chopper (#66), and Shou Tucker.
[edit] Laboratory Rats
The member's of Marta's Covert Ops team were taken captive by the military after the outbreak of the Ishbal War and turned into "BeastMen" Chimeras. The statement of their being "lab rats", is actually a quote from Marta in the english anime as she stated "those of us who lived, became the rats of Lab 5".
[edit] The Ishbal War
Laboratory Five had numerous functions for the Ishbal War. For one thing, it provided the Philosopher Stones used by Basque Grand, Roy Mustang, Zolf J. Kimblee, and Alex Louis Armstrong used to "massacre" the Ishbalans.

[edit] Other
Laboratory Five has an unexplained connection with the Second Execution Ground. As Archer was assigned to clear up Lab 5, he gave Sheska a mission and stated "I need all the records pertaining to Brigadier General Grand, Dr. Marcoh, and Shou Tucker. And be sure to include and documents regarding Laboratory Five or the Second Execution Ground". By the execution ground, he probably meant the 2nd Prison, which was supposedly used to "execute" people, but then use them as ingredients for the Homonculi's experiments to create the Philosopher's Stone.
