Abstract

Animal experimentation is widely used for scientific purposes and provides important advances in knowledge and improvements in health care. However, its practice must be based on established ethical principles. In this article, bibliographic productions on ethics in animal experimentation were analyzed and the ethical principles that guide legislation and guidelines on the care and use of animals were described, as well as the impacts of this research model on human health.
