Animal Testing: The Future of Pharmaceuticals

Millions of chemicals have been discontinued due to routine use such as plant poisoning and are thought not safe for humans and the environment through animal experiments. Without animal experiments, the general public will still use these dangerous chemicals. Many humanitarians may oppose testing chemicals in animals, but if scientists do not test animals, individuals will test fatal chemicals or chemicals used will be toxic I am living in a world where I do not know whether it is fatal or not. . For human society.

Introduction Animals have been used for drug testing throughout history. The early Greeks in BC was the first to use living animals for animal experiments to test and test various medicines. (En.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_animal_testing) Animal experiments have brought many positive factors to human life, but that is a controversial matter. Some animal experiments are unnecessary and some think that alternative studies should be considered. - Animal experiments in scientific research Moral animal experiments are not new. Scientists and researchers have used various animals for centuries. Most animals are small animals such as rodents - mice, mice, hamsters, gerbils. Dogs, cats, various goats, monkeys, rabbits, etc. are also used. The problem of animal rights is an emotional problem. The value of animal research has been overvalued for decades.

Animal experiments are the standard of research. Instead of testing products and medicines with humans like products, the choice of using animals for testing is becoming highly dependent. There are several advantages such as low cost, but animals can get many luxury goods that can not be used in the natural environment. You can also gather useful information on physical functions. According to a study by Teal Burrell (2013), "When testing in animals, treatment is usually promising and pharmaceutical companies are encouraged to begin clinical trials to test the safety and efficacy of human patients." Animal experiments are completely converted to human exams, so what is the purpose of starting animal experiments?

Toxicology tests, also known as safety tests, are conducted by pharmaceutical companies on behalf of various customers to test drugs and undertake animal laboratories (eg Huntingdon Life Sciences). According to the 2005 EU data, about 1 million animals are used each year in Europe toxicity test, about 10% of the total procedure. According to Nature, 5,000 animals are used per chemical substance, 12,000 of which require pesticide testing. Tests are conducted without anesthesia. This is because interactions between drugs can affect the way an animal detoxifies chemical substances and interfere with results.
