Refining laboratory rodent husbandry - recent advances
The three Rs of animal research Replacement, Reduction, Refinement first put forward by Russell and Birch (1959) have provided the foundation on which many of the advances in laboratory animal welfare have been built. The desired end-state is the complete replacement of animals in research, however until scientific advances make this feasible, efforts should be taken to refine husbandry procedu...
متن کاملCommon husbandry-related variables in biomedical research with animals.
Common, often overlooked, variables in biomedical research with animals are reviewed. The barren primary enclosure is an abnormal living environment for laboratory animals. Species-appropriate enrichment attenuates some of the distress resulting from chronic understimulation. Social deprivation distress of individually-caged social animals is best mitigated by the provision of compatible compan...
متن کاملGuidelines for specification of animals and husbandry methods when reporting the results of animal experiments. Working Committee for the Biological Characterization of Laboratory Animals/GV-SOLAS.
Any report on the results of animal studies must include sufficient information on the animals used and their conditions of husbandry to enable the reader to understand how the investigation was performed. Only then can he properly interpret the findings. These guide-lines provide a catalogue of the minimum information which should be included in such reports.
متن کاملHousing and husbandry conditions affect stereotypic behaviour in laboratory gerbils.
An artificial burrow was developed which fits into standard laboratory cages and significantly reduces stereotypic digging in gerbils. Also, the causes of bar-chewing were assessed experimentally. Neither the lack of gnawing material, nor the spatial proximity of cage-lid bars and food in the hopper nor the routine husbandry procedure of transferring juvenile gerbils to a fresh cage, but premat...
