Example text
Breeding of the most common laboratory animal species is subject to regulations on designated breeding of research animals in European Union member states, which means that all breeders must management and quality assurance 43 be licensed by and work under the inspection of the local animal welfare authorities. These regulations, however, do not apply to swine breeding; therefore, swine breeders especially may benefit from AAALAC accreditation. In the United States, Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees (IACUC) are charged with oversight and evaluation of animal care and use under the terms of the Animal Welfare Act and the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.
Therefore, restricted feeding is often applied at research facilities. In miniature swine, restricted feeding is essential, since they easily become obese when fed without restriction. 45 This may be applied to laboratory swine as well, but, more often, restricted feeding with a low-energy diet is applied to allow the animals a satisfying food volume intake. 5 MJ/kg (2275 kcal/kg). Feeding levels can be found in Table 9, and growth rates in Figure 6. Clean drinking water should be available at all times.
92 accreditation Certain bodies may accredit laboratory animal facilities with respect to either animal welfare or production quality. 93 For registering or licensing non-clinical health and environmental studies, good laboratory practice (GLP) is a legal requirement. GLP guidelines are often relevant only for institutions performing those types of studies. AAALAC International The Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care (AAALAC) runs a voluntary accreditation program in which research institutions and animal breeders demonstrate that they are not only meeting the minimums required by law, but are going the extra step to achieve and showcase excellence in animal care and use.
