| Sumario: | Non-human animals are routinely used in research, although studies refute the premise that resultsgenerated in this way benefit society. Law 11,794/2008 established ethics committees on the useof animals, with the authority to normatively and ethically evaluate teaching and research protocols.However, gaps in the bioethics training of committee representatives and a lack of incentive to implementsubstitute techniques, in addition to the more significant concern with compliance with the standard thanwith animal ethics, end up disregarding non-human animals morally. Despite the advancement of animalwelfare practices, the commitment of institutions to support the work of ethics committees on the use ofanimals is low, as is the commitment of the National Council for the Control of Animal Experimentationin the formation and guidance of these committees so that they can exercise their powers and raiseawareness among researchers regarding the ethical principles of animal experimentation. |
