Animal Use Protocol
Procedure
Animal use and care at UC
Riverside facilities is covered by
UC Riverside
Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) approved
Animal Use Protocols (AUP).
You must obtain
UC Riverside IACUC approval of your AUP application before initiating
any animal research, teaching and breeding activities.
AUP applications
must be submitted
electronically. Send completed Animal Use Protocol
(AUP)
applications as e-mail attachments to
monica.wicker@ucr.edu, for Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee
(IACUC) review. IACUC turn around time is four to six weeks.
UCR IACUC approval
of AUP applications, AUP
Amendments, and Annual AUP Renewals cannot be
granted until the
Office of the Campus Veterinarian confirms completion of the
Animal Care and Use Training, and clearance of the Animal Handlers Medical
Questionnaire.
Applications may be submitted at any time for IACUC review. The term of an IACUC approved AUP is three years.
However, annual IACUC renewal is required.
Grant applicants are responsible for knowing the AUP requirements of
the granting agency.
File an AUP
Amendment if you already have an
approved AUP and only need to make minor changes. AUP amendment
forms must be submitted
electronically.
AUP Forms
For further AUP application assistance, please contact the
Compliance Office,
Office of Research Affairs, at 951-827-5535.
