Number of animals. The objective is for a sufficient number of pregnant rats to be exposed to ensure that an adequate number of offspring are pro- duced for neurotoxicity evaluation. At least 20 litters are recommended at each dose level. This number assumes a coefficient of variation of 20 to 25 per- cent for most behavioral tests. If, based upon experience with historical control data or data for positive controls in a given laboratory, the coefficient of var- iation for a given task is higher than 20 to 25 percent, then calculation of ap- propriate sample sizes to detect a 20 percent change from control values with 80 percent power would need to be done. For most designs, calculations can be made according to Xxxxx and Xxxxxx (1957) under paragraph (e)(5) of this section, Neter and Xxxxxxxxx (1974) under paragraph (e)(10) of this section, Xxxxx and Xxxxx (1969) under paragraph (e)(11) of this section, or Xxxxxx (1972) under paragraph (e)(8) of this section.
Number of animals. Generally, only one animal will be approved to be in residence in a single housing unit. Size of Animal Crate/Cage An ESA should be crated when the student is not in the room. The size of crate/cage should be an appropriate size for the space available in the housing unit. IHCC Student Housing can assist with determining these dimensions. IHCC furniture cannot be removed from the resident’s room. Care of the ESA The care of the ESA is the sole responsibility of the student. The student will • Provide appropriate restraint, control and supervision of the animal at all times. • Provide the animal with appropriate care, including food, water, shelter, health care and humane treatment. • Clean up and dispose of all animal waste (both indoors and outdoors) in a timely and effective manner. • Not allow odor, noise, damage, or other behavior of the animal that disturbs others or damages college grounds, facilities or property. • Confine the animal when leaving the room. • Not leave the animal alone for a time period in excess of six consecutive hours per 24 hours. Any exceptions to this must be approved through IHCC Student Housing. Failure to abide by the ESA policy may result in a written warning, fine, or the removal of the ESA from on-campus housing. Age of the Animal Generally, an animal must be at least 9 months of age to live on campus to assure that the animal is reliably housebroken, not disruptive to other residents, and has all of the shots necessary to make it safe to be around humans and other animals (that may be in the residence).

Number of animals. The research potentially involves minor short-term pain, discomfort, or distress which will be treated with appropriate anesthetics/analgesics. Includes terminal anesthetic surgery, minor survival surgery with anesthesia, and without significant postoperative pain (e.g., biopsy) and/or implantation of minor chronic catheters (e.g., femoral arterial and venous catheters, flow probes, etc.) and/or short-term physical restraint (<60 minutes) of awake animals and/or induction of minor behavioral stress.
