Ethical Treatment of Lab Animals

Justification of Research Research should be undertaken with a clear scientific purpose. There should be a reasonable explanation that the research will: Increase knowledge of the processes being studied Provide results that benefit the health and welfare of humans and other animals

Justification of Research The scientific purpose of the research should be of sufficient potential significance to justify the use of animals. The species chosen for study should be best suited to answer the question(s) posed. Research on animals may not be conducted until the protocol has been reviewed by an appropriate animal care committee, to ensure that the procedures are appropriate and humane.

Personnel Animal use procedures must conform with federal regulations regarding personnel, supervision, record keeping, and veterinary care. Ensure that all individuals who use animals under their supervision receive instruction in experimental methods and in the care, maintenance, and handling of the species being studied.

Care and housing of animals Animals are to be provided with humane care and healthful conditions during their stay in the facility. Researchers are encouraged to consider enriching the environments of their laboratory animals and should keep current with literature on well-being and enrichment for the species with which they work.

Acquisition of animals Animals not bred in the research facility are to be acquired lawfully. Researchers should make every effort to ensure that those responsible for transporting the animals to the facility provide adequate food, water, ventilation, space, and impose no unnecessary stress on the animals. Endangered species should be used only with full attention to required permits and ethical concerns.

Experimental procedures Humane consideration for the well-being of the animal should be incorporated into the design and conduct of all procedures involving animals, while keeping in mind the primary goal of experimental procedures--the acquisition of sound, replicable data.

Experimental procedures Procedures in which the animal is anesthetized and insensitive to pain throughout the procedure and is euthanized before regaining consciousness are generally acceptable. Behavioral studies that involve no aversive stimulation to, or overt sign of distress from, the animal are acceptable.

Experimental procedures Procedures involving more than momentary or slight aversive stimulation, which is not relieved by medication or other acceptable methods, should be undertaken only when the objectives of the research cannot be achieved by other methods. Procedures involving the use of paralytic agents without reduction in pain sensation require particular prudence and humane concern.

Experimental procedures Experimental procedures that require prolonged aversive conditions or produce tissue damage or metabolic disturbances require greater justification and surveillance. An animal observed to be in a state of severe distress or chronic pain that cannot be alleviated and is not essential to the purposes of the research should be euthanized immediately. In surgical procedures animals should be maintained under anesthesia until the procedure is ended.

Experimental procedures Animals reared in the laboratory should not be released because, in most cases, they cannot survive or they may survive by disrupting the natural ecology. Euthanasia shall be accomplished in a humane manner, disposal of euthanized animals should be accomplished in a manner that is in accord with all relevant legislation.
