Comment 1: The new regulations, if adopted, would place undue burden on animal research and greatly hinder our advancements. In addition,the specific recommendations included in this latest edition of the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals are scientifically untested and extremely costly. Comment 2: Again, I'd forcefully add that the recommendations are scientifically untested and implementation of the regulations for facility evaluation by any date, but certainly by 2012, would place incredible financial strain on many struggling researchers and their institutions.
