disease from human patients without the need for invasive surgery, or animal testing. InVitro Research An enormous amount of valuable invitro (test tube) research is conducted today. Cell and tissue cultures are used to screen anticancer and antiAIDS drugs and to test for product irritancy. The AIDS virus was isolated in human serum, and in vitro methods are providing new insights into the virus39。s Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals (PHS 1996)。 which exist to be used by humankind? Do animals have rights? How should we treat animals? What kind of regulation should we follow? Researchers with a simple way of looking at the world will frequently argue that animals do not have any rights. When pushed they will explain that the sole purpose of animals is to make our lives easier. When pushed they will explain that the sole purpose of animals is to make our lives easier. The furthest they will go towards accepting that animals deserve to be treated with respect is to say that human beings share a responsibility to ensure that animals are not subjected to unnecessary suffering. The word 39。things39。t be considered as lifeless machines! Rules and regulations for animal research ? the Animal Welfare Act (CFR 1985) ? the Public Health Service39。 effect on human cells. Computer Modeling Computer programs can often predict the toxicity of chemicals, including their potential to cause cancer or birth defects, based on their molecular structure. Computer simulations have also replaced live animals in medical education. Britain,Germany,Austria and Holland have banded cosmetics testing on animals. Recently Germen researchers develop a new way to test cosmetics not using animals. In the future Animal researchers say that it will be impossible to eliminate all animal tests. But most scientists accept that it is extremely important to minimize the suffering of laboratory animals, and to use as few animals as possible. Thank you for your attention !
