Spectrophotometry was used in the lab to determine whether non-magnetized zeolite, magnetized zeolite, or charcoal was the more effective sequestration agent for Procion Red Dye. A calibration curve was created with the known concentrations and the absorbances of the Procion Red Dye dilutions at λmax. The slope of the calibration curve was used to determine the concentration of the analytes. As a result, charcoal was shown to be the more effective sequestration agent.…

One of todays biggest ethical dilemmas can be found in the Medical field. We all turn our heads away and cringe when we hear the term "human test subjects", as the past has been dark and far from any morality in this domain; yet we do not cease to use the findings of the sadistic experiments. Researchers now use mice and other animals which can show the effects a(n) medication/evolution/disease may have on humans. But I find testing on clueless animals immoral.…

The Belmont Report attempts to summarize the basic ethical principles identified by the Commission in the course of its deliberations. It is the outgrowth of an intensive four-day period of discussions that were held in February 1976 at the Smithsonian Institution's Belmont Conference Center supplemented by the monthly deliberations of the Commission that were held over a period of nearly four years. It is a statement of basic ethical principles and guidelines that should assist in resolving the ethical problems that surround the conduct of research with human subjects. By publishing the Report in the Federal…
Medical institution management and ethics committees should collaborate to apply an ethical policy to every case where experimentation on human beings is an issue. It should also be ensured that all other avenues of research have been exhausted, including research documents and laboratory work involving animals - also according to the applicable set of ethical guidelines. In the democratic and free world we like to believe that we live in today, surely the guidelines for the ethical treatment of all living things should be clearer than ever before. Surely…
When it comes to animal research I feel there are to major dilemmas that arise that play a major role in how we determine the research methods as ethical or not: (1) do certain non-human species have changed consciousness and (2) to what extent do the animals suffer or experience death and how that influences their overall “well-being.” I pose these to issues because as rational, logical creatures we are capable of answering these two questions for ourselves and discuss our thoughts and feelings with one another, but we are unable to converse with or tap into the psyche of other species in a similar manner. Essential, we cannot determine with certainty if non-human species truly have a consciousness or evaluate their overall state (aside from…
When looking at things from an ethical perspective, one has to consider how to protect and preserve the basic needs of others as well as their own. There is no difference here when dealing with the well being of animals. Alice Walter and Ted Kerasote are two individuals who deal with ethical issues regarding the well being of animals, and while their stories are vastly different, their main points have overlapping similarities. In Anthony Weston’s A 21st Century Ethical Toolbox, both Walter and Kerasote’s experiences are explicitly detailed through Walter’s essay, “Am I Blue?,” and Kerasote’s excerpt from Bloodties: Nature, Culture, and the Hunt. Throughout both of their experiences, Weston’s three-part concept of ethics is put into full-effect.…
The animal defense movement is divided into two groups: reformers who admit that using animals in biomedical research is necessary but purpose to…
For many years, the debate of whether animals have moral rights or not has been thrown around court rooms, social media, and protests. Arguments are made defending animals and suggesting that they should be protected and recognized in human society. Medical researchers are scrutinized and harassed by these supporters for their part in animal testing and medical investigation. Scientific breakthroughs have been made, which has transformed the development of modern medicine. Lifespans have elongated and lives are being saved in every corner of the world, yet somehow, this is still debated as if it is the wrong thing to do. Research animals are pertinent tools of the medical world and humans are entitled to use them as such. As human beings with…

Attacking using animals in medical experiments, they portray those research as inhumane and unethical because those animals are deprived of their rights of life and liberty. Nevertheless, are we going to use human beings in medical research instead of animals? Obviously, it is impossible and even more inhumane and unethical. It is reported that each year over 3 million of animals die for research projects in Britain, however, the British consume more than 300 million a year in their diet every year. Are those vegetarians the only zoophiles in the world? It is just the law of our nature which makes food necessary to the life of human.…
