Animal studies involve using non-human animals in experiments to study behavior and biological systems while controlling variables. Common animal types used include mice, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, dogs, and cats. There are several types of animal studies including in vivo, in vitro, and ex vivo studies. Animal research is one type of medical research used to understand how the body works and develop new medicines by testing for safety and effectiveness before human trials. Common applications include using rats to test diabetic and cancer drugs, mice for toxicity testing, and dogs to study anti-hypertension drugs.

2. Animal studies ?
Animal testing, also known as animal
experimentation, animal research and in vivo
testing, is the use of non-human animals in
experiments that seek to control the variables
that affect the behaviour or biological system
under study

3. Where does animal studies play ?

4. What animal are used ?

6. Types
• In vivo
• Invitro
• Exvivo
• Bioassays

7. What type of study is animal studies
• Medical research with animals is one type of medical
research, but other types include experiments with
cells and chemicals and simulations on computers.
• Animal research usually describes research involving
vertebrates, such as cats, mice, frogs, pigs, and
primates

8. Why are animals used in scientific research?
• Animals are used in scientific research to help us
understand our own bodies and how they work.
• This is necessary to develop new medicines.
• Animals are also used to safety test potential
medicines before they are tested in people and to
check the safety of other chemicals.

9. Applications of animals
1. Rat = diabetic/ Cancer drugs etc
2. Mice = acute / chronic toxicity test
3. Rabbit = pyrogen test / ophthalmic drugs
4. Guinea pig = respiratory drugs/ immune drugs
5. Dog = anti hypertension drugs etc
6. Cat = neurological studies

10. Types of animal models
1. Disease induction models
2. Xenograft animal models
3. Inbred strains
4. Transgenic models
