Claim
Most of the Animal Testing does not provide solution to the human treatment in biomedical research, and are not reliable to predict the human health. Along with this human benefit cannot justify the cruelty in animal testing during research. However, looking at the history of biomedical research, animal have been repeatedly use whether those testing were successful or not. It is true that human beings and animals are somewhat similar in biological and physical structure but does that mean animals are good enough to use in biomedical research for human treatment? Even though they share some common features, they function differently at cellular level and reacts differently to the chemicals, in fact, “humans differ from other animals anatomically, genetically and metabolically, meaning data derived from animals cannot be extrapolated to humans with sufficient accuracy” (Pycroft, L. and Martson, H. …show more content…
There are some animal testing which have been found helpful and successful in determining the human treatment and medicine but that does not provide any guarantee that animal testing are always successful and helpful. Moreover, “animal ‘models’ have never been …show more content…
On the other hand there is no any guarantee that these results will be successful on implementing human beings. Thus animal testing can delay the discovery of treatment wasting money and effort as well. The development of polio vaccine in which “researchers spent decades infecting nonhuman primates with the disease and conducting other animal experiments, but failed to produce a vaccine”, (Results from Research on Animals Are Not Valid When Applied to Humans, 2015) which was then discover through in virto techniques, is one of the examples that proves animal experimentation just delay and impede the biomedical
