Anishare: An Open-Source Software to Improve the Use of Surplus Laboratory Animals and Organs

Introduction: Scientists are required to comply with the 3Rs when conducting animal experiments. Strategies to implement the “R” for “Reduction” include improved statistical planning, optimized breeding schemes, and replacement of animals or isolated organs. In the breeding of genetically modified lines, despite optimal planning, many animals are born that may have an undesirable genotype or sex. Often these surplus animals cannot be used in the actual experiment and are therefore killed without further use. While sharing and exchanging unused animals within or outside of research institutes would meet the ethical and legal requirements to make the best use of animals, the practical organization and information flows can be challenging. Software solutions can help to communicate and facilitate sharing and incentivize scientists to engage. Methods and Results: We developed a user-friendly open-source web-based software called AniShare to support and facilitate the exchange of information regarding animals available for sharing within scientific institutes. The application provides the ability to share both animals and organs while considering all required documentation. AniShare can be used for different animal species and offers the possibility of further customization. In a further step, we connected Anishare with commercially available animal management databases to further automate the process. Conclusion: AniShare is freely available through published source code and can be easily implemented in every type of facility. All facilities are required to apply and continuously optimize the 3Rs. Therefore, AniShare can be an easy-to-adopt 3R initiative that contributes to promote animal welfare and an institutional “Culture of Care”
