Ultrasonography of the neotropical primate female reproductive system [PDF]
The Neotropical (e. g., Aotus sp., Callithrix jacchus, Saguinus sp., Saimiri sp., and Sapajus sp.) primates are important models for biomedical research and studies on reproductive physiology and biotechnology.

Socialization of adult owl monkeys (Aotus sp.) in Captivity [PDF]
Social housing has often been recommended as one‐way to address the psychological well‐being of captive non‐human primates. Published reports have examined methods to socialize compatible animals by forming pairs or groups. Successful socialization rates vary depending on the species, gender, and environment. This study presents a retrospective look at

Prevalence and Molecular Characterisation of Blastocystis sp. Infecting Free-Ranging Primates in Colombia [PDF]
Infection with Blastocystis sp. has been reported in free-living and captive non-human primates (NHPs); however, surveys on Blastocystis sp. from north-western South America are scarce. This study aimed to identify Blastocystis sp.

The normal and abnormal owl monkey (Aotus sp.) heart: looking at cardiomyopathy changes with echocardiography and electrocardiography [PDF]
AbstractBackground Cardiovascular disease, especially cardiomyopathy, was the major cause of death among owl monkeys (Aotus sp.) at a major colony and threatened colony sustainability. For this study, echocardiography (echo) and electrocardiography (ECG) normal values were established, and cardiomyopathy animals identified.Methods Forty‐eight owl ...

Intestinal parasites infecting free-ranging primates in Colombia: Morphological and molecular evidence [PDF]
Intestinal protozoan and metazoan parasites of public health concern have been found infecting non-human primates (NHPs). Since zoonotic parasite transmission can be linked to ecosystem transformation due to close contact between human and NHPs, this ...

Safety and Immunogenicity of the Attenuated Yellow Fever Vaccine in Several Neotropical Primate Species [PDF]
Background/Objective: Yellow fever (YF) is an acute infectious disease caused by the yellow fever virus which is transmitted by mosquitoes. Neotropical primates are susceptible to infection, which is often presented as epizootic outbreaks. The aim was to

Building Babies - Chapter 16 [PDF]
In contrast to birds, male mammals rarely help to raise the offspring. Of all mammals, only among rodents, carnivores, and primates, males are sometimes intensively engaged in providing infant care (Kleiman and Malcolm 1981).
