Abstract: Although the Draize eye irritation test has provided important and
useful information for eye safety assessments, considerable effort has been
directed toward refining the assay procedure, reducing the number of animals
used, and replacing this assay with alternative methods. The low-volume eye
test (LVET) is a refinement of the Draize eye irritation test that uses 1/10
the volume of test substance placed directly on the cornea. The level and
duration of eye irritation in the LVET are less than those in the Draize
procedure, which means that it is a less stressful test. Furthermore, LVETs
are more predictive of human response. Statistical studies have been conducted
to determine the effects of reducing the number of animals used in the Draize
test. These results suggested that a three-animal test would provide
essentially the same information as the six-animal test. A similar analysis
has not been performed on results from the LVET. Accordingly, the present
study was undertaken to evaluate previously existing LVET data to determine if
the number of animals used in a LVET can be decreased as has been shown for
the Draize test. The results of the analysis are consistent with the findings
of earlier evaluations of classical Draize data. Three-animal subsets from 119
six-animal LVETs provided the correct classification greater than 92% of the
time for three different classification schemes. Furthermore, the
discrepancies between the three-animal subsets and the six-animal maximum
average score tended to be smaller than those observed for the Draize test.
The analysis suggests that a three-animal LVET will provide an eye irritation
classification similar to that obtained from a six-animal study.

Abstract: Extract: Unfractionated gliadin and its alpha, beta, gamma and
omega-gliadin subfractions were used as rabbit immunogens. The antisera were
characterized by (1) Ouchterlony double diffusion, (2) binding of
125I-labelled gliadin subfractions, (3) inhibition by several gliadin
subfractions of binding between gamma-gliadin antiserum and 125I-labelled
gamma-gliadin. Double diffusion showed identical cross-reactivity between the
antisera and the gliadin subfractions with the exception of omega-gliadin.
Precipitin lines of partial identity with gliadin were observed against rye
secalins and barley hordeins but not oat avenins or maize zeins. Binding was
observed between unfractionated 125I-labelled alph-, beta-, gamma-, and
omega-gladians and all the antisera. There was binding of 125I-labelled
omega-gliadin to the omega-gliadin antiserum but poor binding of 125I-labelled
omega-gliadin to unfractionated alpha, beta, and gamma-gliadin antisera.
Competitive inhibition of binding between 125I-labelled gamma-gliadin and
gamma-gliadin antiserum diluted 1:250 (v/v) demonstrated similar competition
between alpha, beta, and gamma-gliadins and this antiserum but poor
competition between omega-gliadin, wheat glutenins, albumins and globulins,
rye secalins, barley hordeins and oat avenins. These findings suggest that
there is a good correlation between the antigenic structure of gliadin
proteins and their toxicity to patients with coeliac disease. (Author)

Abstract: The present study characterized the profile of nuclear remodeling
in nuclear transplant rabbit embryos and investigated the relationship between
chromatin behavior after transfer and embryo development. The developmental
potential and pattern of remodeling of donor nuclei from cleavage-, morula-,
and blastocyst- (inner cell mass, ICM, and trophectoderm, TE) stage donors
were evaluated. In addition, we determined whether a modification in the
synchrony between blastomere fusion and oocyte activation altered the profile
of nuclear remodeling and affected development of reconstituted embryos.
Development to blastocysts similar with 8- and 32-cell-stage donor nuclei (42%
and 33%, respectively, p > 0.1). However, it was reduced with ICM transplants
(17%, p < 0.05), and development of TE transplants did not progress beyond the
8-cell stage. Upon blastomere fusion into nonactivated oocyte cytoplasm,
nuclear remodeling was characterized by premature chromosome condensation
(PCC), followed by pronuclear (PN) formation and swelling. PCC occurred
synchronously within 1.2-1.5 h post-fusion with all stages of donor nuclei (p
> 0.1). PN formation in 8- and 32-cell transplants occurred approximately 4 h
after fusion, and was synchronous to that of female pronuclei in activated
oocytes; however, it was delayed in ICM and TE transplants (p < 0.01). With
all stages of donor nuclei, final nuclear diameter was similar to, or larger
than, that of female pronuclei. Fusion to activated oocyte cytoplasm, as
opposed to nonactivated cytoplasm, prevented PCC and extensive nuclear
swelling (16.0 +/- 0.7 vs. 30 +/- 0.7 micromole, respectively, p < 0.01).
Nuclear diameter in early embryos was smaller (p < 0.01), and development to
blastocysts was reduced (p < 0.05). The results indicate that remodeling of
the donor nucleus is not essential for development to blastocysts; however, it
is beneficial. Furthermore, complete reprogramming seems possible only after
remodeling of the donor nucleus, i.

Abstract: Enhancing the psychological well-being of laboratory animals has
received much attention recently. Although many studies have been undertaken
to determine the effects of cage enrichment techniques on dogs and nonhuman
primates, other than scant empirical observations, little has been done to
measure these events objectively in lagomorphs. We studied adult female New
Zealand White (NZW) rabbits to learn if, when given the opportunity,
individual rabbits would use different enrichment objects placed in their
cages, and to determine if rabbits preferred to be in proximity to one
another, or apart. Three different objects were evaluated with eight rabbits
individually housed in conventional cages. Each object introduced into
individual rabbit cages stimulated substantial interaction, especially chewing
behavior. Eight other rabbits were pair-housed in a modified caging system
with a special access port between two separate cages. When given a choice,
rabbits preferred to be in the same cage with other rabbits. In both studies,
individual behaviors were monitored, as well as either the type of interaction
and percentage of observations spent with each object or, in the housing
study, percentage of observations involved with different types of activity,
and relative location of the paired rabbits.

Abstract: The potential advantage of corporate vigilance to rabbit,
Oryctolagus cuniculus, groups was studied in free-ranging rabbits that
associated and cohabited basically in male-female 'consorting' pairs. Evening
observations were conducted of rabbits during the breeding season. Levels of
vigilance of an individual rabbit during feeding decreased with proximity to
that rabbit's 'consort'. In contrast, rabbits increased their vigilance in the
presence of greater numbers of non-consort rabbits either nearby or over 12 m
away. An experiment using stuffed animals as stimulus objects indicated that
the presence of a strange rabbit or of a fox increased the proportion of time
that rabbits spent vigilant. Non-social factors also influenced vigilance and
feeding. In particular, vigilance decreased as the evening proceeded and with
higher temperature. For bucks only, it also decreased as the season advanced.

Spontaneous and odour-induced chin marking in domestic female rabbits.

Abstract: In the European rabbit, Oryctolagus cuniculus, chin marking is one
of the most conspicuous forms of olfactory communication. In an investigation
of factors influencing the expression of this behaviour in females, the
marking frequency of seven intact and three ovariectomized does was tested
over a 12-month period by placing them individually for 10 min each day in an
arena containing three bricks. In the intact does but not in the
ovariectomized ones, the frequency of chinning was increased by experimental
long days and suppressed by experimental short days within 1-2 weeks of
reversing the light regime. These changes were accompanied by clear
alterations in the size and colour of the vulva, indicating that oestrus was
also suppressed under the short-day conditions. However, presenting does with
bricks marked by donor animals resulted in a significant increase in the
frequency of chinning independent of photoperiod. Moreover, does appeared to
distinguish between donors, directing marks preferentially to bricks marked by
males rather than females, bricks marked by long-day rather than short-day
donors, and those marked with chin gland secretion rather than with donors'
urine or with carrot or lemon juice. Thus, while the finding that chinning
activity was positively correlated with oestrus is consistent with the
hypothesis that in females this behaviour is a form of sexual advertisement,
the differential response shown to the chin marks of individual donors, even
by non-oestrous does, suggests other, non-sexual functions for the
chemosignals in chin gland secretion.

Abstract: An assessment was made of the effects of topical application of a
eutectic mixture of local anaesthetics (EMLA cream) in a number of species of
laboratory animals. Application of EMLA cream enabled percutaneous insertion
of catheters into the cephalic vein in dogs and cats and the marginal ear vein
in rabbits without causing any detectable pain or discomfort. Application to
the tail in rats prior to percutaneous cannulation of the lateral tail vein
did not produce a significant reduction in the behavioural responses to
venepuncture. EMLA cream represents a useful refinement of current techniques
for intravenous injection in some species, and is especially valuable when the
procedure is to be undertaken by an inexperienced operator.

Descriptors: Rabbits; Dogs; Euthanasia; Equipment; Methodology; Animal welfare
Abstract: The penetrative captive bolt pistol was tested on dogs (Canis
familiaris) and rabbits (Oryctolagus cunniculi) to assess if it is a humane
method of euthanasia to use when a physical method is required. The bolt was
placed directly on the skull at the intersection of lines drawn from the
lateral canthus of each eye to the opposite ear, and fired. In all cases,
consciousness appeared to be lost immediately as evidenced by motoric collapse
of the animal and loss of the corneal reflex. The only movement noted appeared
to be reflex in nature. In order to determine the time of onset of brain
death, the auditory evoked potential (AEP) and electroencephalogram (EEG) were
measured in dogs. Within 15 seconds after firing the pistol, organized AEP
activity could not be detected above the medulla and EEG activity became
isoelectric. These findings suggest that cerebral death occurred almost
immediately and, therefore, the captive bolt pistol is a humane method of
euthanasia.

Descriptors: Rabbits; Cannulation; Catheters; Jugular vein; Blood sampling;
Infusion
Abstract: Although rabbit ear vessels are readily accessible, the veins can
collapse and thrombose after multiple venipunctures, and the artery may
undergo vasospasm when repeatedly catheterized. Twenty-two male and female New
Zealand White rabbits were cannulated with the catheter tip located in the
jugular vein. The mean life of the port was noted to be approximately 3.5
months, with ranges of 3 days to 10 months. With proper maintenance and care,
vascular access ports are a useful alternative to multiple venipuncture for
long-term studies, thereby sparing marginal and central vessels and minimizing
stress to both animals and investigators.
