本报告提供了关于改进使用食物和液体控制作为行为神经科学研究中猕猴激励工具的实用指南。该指南基于对科学文献的考虑，数据缺乏专家意见和专业经验，包括英国国家研究动物替代精炼和减少中心（NC3R）召集的工作组成员的意见。该报告对负责猕猴福利的研究人员、兽医和动物护理人员应该有用。用于食品和液体控制协议以及涉及设计、执行和分析使用这些协议的研究的报告还应协助监管机构和当地伦理审查程序或机构动物护理和使用委员会的成员评估此类协议该报告提供了一个可以根据当地要求进行定制的完善框架它还确定了数据差距和未来研究领域并提出了工作组关于当代最佳实践的建议 (C) 2010 Elsevier B V 保留所有权利
This report provides practical guidance on refinement of the use of food and fluid control as motivational tools for macaques used in behavioural neuroscience research The guidance is based on consideration of the scientific literature and where data are lacking expert opinion and professional experience including that of the members of a Working Group convened by the United Kingdom National Centre for the Replacement Refinement and Reduction of Animals in Research (NC3Rs) The report should be useful to researchers veterinarians and animal care staff responsible for the welfare of macaques used in food and fluid control protocols as well as those Involved with designing performing and analysing studies that use these protocols It should also assist regulatory authorities and members of local ethical review processes or institutional animal care and use committees concerned with evaluating such protocols The report provides a framework for refinement that can be tailored to meet local requirements It also identifies data gaps and areas for future research and sets out the Working Group s recommendations on contemporary best practice (C) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved
