MODIFICATION FORMS PURPOSE
Major Modification – As required by the CCAC, all modifications to an approved Animal Use Protocol must be approved by the AUS office. The Major Modification form may be used to request all changes to the currently approved protocol. All major changes require AUS veterinary, community rep, and safety officer review prior to AUS approval. However, where a modification significantly changes the scope of the protocol, a full Animal Use Protocol submission will be requested. Minor Modification (This form) - A reduced and expedited Minor Modification form may be used to request changes to Titles, Funding, Personnel & their Training Requirements, Non-Genetically Altered Strains, Location/Housing, and Animal # Increase <100%. Protocol Transfer Modification - A Protocol Transfer Modification form may be used to request a protocol transfer involving previously approved animals, procedures, drugs and locations. 2 – 3 days may be required for review. Review timeframe depends upon the workload on the AUS office at the time the Minor Modification form is submitted. Electronic Authorization, including an approved Minor Modification form, will be sent via email. Paper copies will no longer be distributed; originals will remain within the AUS office.
