A. Background & Definitions
For research organizations conducting in vivo research, one of the main prerequisites for setting up the EQIPD Quality System are animal care and use standards, ethical and humane use of animal subjects.
B. Guidance & Expectations
If an organization has an AAALAC accreditation, no further action is required. If an organization does not have an AAALAC accreditation, research units are expected to:
- review sections 3.4.1.1 Ethical evaluation and authorization process of animal use to 3.4.1.11 Animal euthanasia procedures in this Toolbox
- complete the Animal Care and Use template provided below
EQIPD recommends that the template is filled by or in close collaboration with an animal facility manager, attending veterinarian or a medical expert with similar background.
C. Resources
- Template to describe information related to animal care and use (all items covered by this section 3.4.1) - 3.4.1 Animal care and use.docx
