Studying humane endpoints in a rat model of mammary carcinogenesis
Objective(s): The present work intended to clearly define the most adequate humane endpoints in an experimental assay of mammary carcinogenesis in rats. Materials and Methods: Animals were observed twice a day; all parameters were registered once a week and the euthanasia endpoints were established in order to monitor the animal welfare/...
متن کاملThe Assessment of Pain Using Facial Expressions in Laboratory Rodents
Pain in animals is of considerable public concern, particularly where animals are used in biomedical research. Pain can compromise not only animal welfare, but also the validity of scientific results. In order to alleviate pain, we need to be able to assess its severity and duration effectively [1]. If we cannot do this then we are unable to provide adequate pain management or to develop more e...
متن کاملAn opportunity to refocus on the 'humane' in experimental endpoints: moving beyond Directive 2010/63/EU.
Humane endpoints are a core refinement concept in animal experimentation. This paper identifies an urgent requirement for individuals and institutions to refocus on humane endpoints as part of the transposition of Directive 2010/63/EU into the national laws of the Member States, and to go beyond their legal construction when setting new guidance or applying humane endpoints in practice. It will...
متن کاملEndpoint matrix: a conceptual tool to promote consideration of the multiple dimensions of humane endpoints.
This paper proposes a framework to support appropriate application of endpoints in animal experiments. It is recommended that unpredicted endpoints should be explicitly considered alongside scientific endpoints and justifiable endpoints as the three types of endpoint which comprise the "humane." We suggest there is a need for clear identification of each type of endpoint and an understanding of...
متن کاملPain perception in fish: indicators and endpoints.
Recent evidence has shown that fish display aversive behavioral and physiological reactions and a suspension of normal behavior in response to noxious stimuli that cause pain in other animals and humans. In addition to these behavioral responses, scientists have identified a peripheral nociceptive system and recorded specific changes in the brain activity of fish during noxious stimulation. As ...
