Complete Description of Animal Use. 1. Protocol #15-05 did not contain a complete description of the proposed animal use. The protocol approved by the IACUC in April 2015 contained a description of the administration of the study agent by injection but it was learned during the inspection that the study animals on the premises had received the study agent by the oral route. In addition the approved protocol did not identify the study agent and the dose of the study agent to be administered to the animals was not included. Per this Section of the Regulations, a proposal to conduct an activity involving animals must contain a complete description of the proposed use of the animals so the IACUC can determine that the components of the proposed activities related to the care and use of animals are in accordance with the requirements outlined in this subchapter. The IACUC needs to address this issue that was identified for this protocol. Correct by 6/29/15. NOTE - Exit interview held 5/28/15 on-site with facility representative. Report delivered by e-mail 5/29/15. *END OF REPORT*
