euthanizing animals

Euthanasia of Research Animals
Euthanasia - the act of inducing humane death in an animal by a method that induces rapid loss of consciousness and death with a minimum of pain, discomfort or distress.

Policy

To prevent/alleviate animal suffering, all laboratory animals must be euthanized in a timely manner, either as described in the approved protocol according to established timepoints, or as soon as necessary if established criteria or humane endpoints are reached.

Purpose: The purpose of these guidelines is to describe acceptable methods for the euthanasia of animals used in teaching, research and testing at the University of Iowa. All animal euthanasia must be performed by appropriately trained personnel approved on the Animal Protocol.

Performance of Euthanasia

All animal euthanasia must be performed by appropriately trained personnel approved on the Animal Protocol. All euthanasia procedures must be continuously monitored by the person(s) performing the procedure, until confirmation of euthanasia is complete.

Confirmation of Euthanasia
Any animal euthanized on a University of Iowa Animal Protocol requires a method of confirmation of euthanasia. Some acceptable methods of confirmation are described below.

Common Acceptable Methods of Euthanasia
Listed below are some commonly used and accepted methods of euthanasia for different species. This list is not inclusive. Please see the “AVMA Guidelines on Euthanasia

The framework includes consideration of the training, supervision, competence assessment and continuing training requirements of persons carrying out procedures, taking care of animals, killing animals and of those responsible for the design of procedures and projects. - http://ec.europa.eu/environment/chemicals/lab_animals/pdf/En...

------

Only educated and trained, qualified personnel are allowed to do animal experiments and take care of the animals. A person carrying out an animal experiment is competent, when he/she has completed a laboratory animal course. Animal caretaker must complete the professional examination or he/she must gain the professional skills with working experience.

In Finland, we are following EU Directive´s (2010/63/EU) minimum requirements to education and training and the requirements for obtaining, maintaining and demonstrating requisite competence for the functions A, B, C and D:

(a) carrying out procedures on animals
(b) designing procedures and projects
(c) taking care of animals
(d) killing animals

• Humane killing of animals:

Killing a protected animal in a licensed establishment by an appropriate humane method listed in Schedule 1, or by a method specified in that establishment‘s licence, is not a regulated procedure. This is still the case if the killing is to provide material for scientific use (see the section on Humane Killing in this Guide). A copy of Schedule 1 detailing approved methods of humane killing is available in the consolidated version of ASPA on the Home Office website. [http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/science-research/animal-researc...]

https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachm... - page 9


-----------

• the humane killing of an animal by a competent person using a method appropriate to the animal and listed under Schedule 1 to the ASPA, or specified in the establishment licence(3)
• the killing of an animal outwith an establishment licensed under the ASPA.

(3) Humane killing may only be conducted by people adequately trained and listed on the establishment’s register of competent persons.

Increasingly, moral objections are being voiced to the use or killing of animals for educational purposes, and students' opinions are reflecting this. - http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00219266.1991.965...

--

These laws, regulations, guidelines, and notifications require the educators to use non-invasive alternative methods to replace the killing of animals in the laboratories. - http://www.altex.ch/resources/rISC_011_Sathyanarayana1.pdf
