Replace the use of animals with alternative techniques or avoid the use of animals altogether.
Reduce the number of animals used to a minimum to obtain information from fewer animals or more information from the same number of animals.
Refine the way experiments are carried out, to make sure animals suffer as little as possible. This includes better housing and improvements to procedures which minimise pain and suffering and/or improve animal welfare.
