First, the experimental animal management system
1. Legal system of laboratory animal management. At present, China's main laws and regulations include Regulations on the Management of Laboratory Animals, Regulations on the Classification of Laboratory Animals, and regulations, standards and guidelines promulgated by relevant ministries and local governments.
2. Laboratory animal management institutions. China has established the Animal Experiment Ethics Review Committee (IACUC) and the Animal Management Committee (ALC), whose duties include reviewing and approving animal experiment plans and operating procedures, and supervising the process and results of animal experiments.
3. Management process of experimental animals. The management process of experimental animals in China mainly includes: experimental declaration, ethical review, animal procurement, feeding management, operating procedures, animal health monitoring and waste disposal.
4. Matters needing attention in these links include animal quantity control, species selection, guarantee of feeding conditions, scientific operation procedures, etc.
5. Management technology of experimental animals: China adopts internationally recognized excellent varieties of experimental animals, strictly abides by the 3R principle, and promotes precision medicine and personalized medicine. At the same time, China encourages high-tech means to replace experimental animals, such as 3D simulation technology.
Second, the supplementary explanation
1. With the release of "Several Opinions on Strengthening Animal Protection" and the continuous improvement of social animal protection awareness, the management requirements for experimental animals are becoming more and more strict.
2. At the same time, the protection of animal rights and interests has also become one of the development priorities of the country, whether it is scientific and technological innovation or social civilization, and people's requirements for the management system and norms of experimental animals will continue to rise.
3. Therefore, relevant departments need to constantly improve the system, promote standardized management, strengthen the skills training and assessment of experimental institutions and researchers, and ensure the sustained and healthy development of experimental animal management.
