The animal care and use committee (ACUC) operates at the institutional level and is mandated by federal laws and national policies. Functions of the ACUC include 1) the review of the animal care portions of projects to determine if the appropriate animal model and appropriate numbers of animals have been chosen, and if personnel are properly trained and knowledgeable in the proper use of anesthesia, analgesia and euthanasia, 2) to conduct semi-annual, unannounced inspections of facilities to ensure the humane care, treatment and transport of animals, and 3) to support the attending veterinarian, making sure he or she has access to all animal facilities, and aiding the veterinarian in training of personnel and review of protocols and facilities.
The effectiveness of the animal care and use committee is largely determined by the institutional administration. The ACUC effectiveness may be enhanced by tailoring the ACUC to the specific needs of the institution, staffing the committee with competent, committed members, and by giving institutional support in the form of resources. The ACUC membership includes scientists who use animals, veterinarians, and lay members (lay members are community members not affiliated with the scientific community). The ACUC, while it must be responsive to the needs of researchers, must also ensure that research is appropriate and animals are treated in a humane manner.
This document covers general issues dealing with animal care and use committees. Topics include industrial applications, ethics, investigator and public attitudes toward the ACUC, membership and training issues, policy, protocol review, and regulation of the ACUC. As a Special Reference Brief, this document contains not only reference materials in the collection of NAL, but also references from outside sources.
