Protocols ACH-100, ASH-200 and ARB-400 contained surgical procedures for chinchillas, sheep and rabbits. The Principal Investigators for protocols ACH-100, ASH-200, and ARB-400 did not write narratives that clearly considered alternatives to potentially painful surgical procedures. The narratives provided by the Principal Investigators instead described the objectives and the rationale for the research. The IACUC shall determine that the principal investigator has considered alternatives to procedures that may cause more than momentary or slight pain or distress to the animals and has provided a written narrative description of the methods and sources used.
