老虎机攻略 Accreditation and Assurance
The 老虎机攻略 has been continuously accredited by AAALAC International since 1967. 老虎机攻略 has a long, proud tradition of humane, proper use of laboratory research animals for biological and biomedical research. The Department of Laboratory Animal Resources at 老虎机攻略 provides resources and services for animal husbandry and the proper use of animals in research programs.
The Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) serves as an independent oversight committee responsible for monitoring all University associated animal care and use.
The presence of an IACUC and the IACUC’s responsibility to assure adherence to federal, state, and institutional guidelines for all animal care and use are monitored by accrediting agencies that include AAALAC, the Public Health Service/National Institutes of Health/Office of Lab Animal Welfare (OLAW) and the United Sates Department of Agriculture (USDA).

What is AAALAC?
AAALAC International is a private, nonprofit organization that promotes the humane treatment of animals in science through a program.
More than 1,100 companies, universities, hospitals, government agencies and other research institutions in 50 countries/regions have earned AAALAC accreditation, demonstrating their commitment to responsible animal care and use. These institutions volunteer to participate in AAALAC's program, in addition to complying with all applicable local and national laws that regulate animal research.
Why is AAALAC's role important?
For some, animal research is a controversial topic. But like others in the animal welfare arena, AAALAC endorses the use of animals to advance medicine and science when there are no non-animal alternatives, and when it is done in an ethical and humane way.
When animals are used, AAALAC works with institutions and researchers to serve as a bridge between progress and animal well-being. This is done through AAALAC's voluntary accreditation process in which research programs demonstrate that they meet the minimum standards required by law, and are also going the extra step to achieve excellence in animal care and use.
AAALAC International envisions a world where excellence in animal welfare and science converge.
