  • Title: [Animal experimentation in the discovery and production of veterinary vaccines].
    Author: Audonnet JCh, Lechenet J, Verschuere B.
    Journal: Rev Sci Tech; 2007 Aug; 26(2):443-9. PubMed ID: 17892164.
    Abstract:
    Veterinary vaccine research, development and production facilities must aim to improve animal welfare, respond to public concerns and meet regulatory requirements, while at the same time fulfilling their objective of producing evermore effective and safer vaccines. The use of animal experimentation for the development of new veterinary vaccines is inevitable, as no in vitro model can predict a candidate vaccine's ability to induce protection in the target species. Against the backdrop of ethical and regulatory constraints, constant progress is being made in creating the best possible conditions for animal experimentation. Keeping up to date with the constant changes in the field of animal ethics requires a particular effort on the part of the pharmaceutical industry, which must make careful changes to product registration documentation in accordance with each new development.
