 The law enacted by Hermann Göring on August 16, 1933, banning vivisection was revised by a decree of September 5 of that year, with more lax provisions, then allowing the Reich Interior Ministry to distribute permits to some universities and research institutes to conduct animal experiments under conditions of anesthesia and scientific need.According to "Pfugers Archiv für die Gesamte Physiologie" (Pfugers Archive for the Total Physiology), a science journal at that time, there were many animal experiments during the Nazi regime.In 1936, the "Tierärztekammer" (Chamber of Veterinarians) in Darmstadt filed a formal complaint against the lack of enforcement of the animal protection laws on those who conducted illegal animal testing.
