Serological Evidence of Orthopoxvirus Infection in Neotropical Primates in Brazil [PDF]
The genus Orthopoxvirus (OPXV) of the family Poxviridae comprises several viruses that are capable of infecting a wide range of hosts. One of the most widespread OPXVs is the Vaccinia virus (VACV), which circulates in zoonotic cycles in South America ...

Infectious diseases of neotropical primates
Neotropical primates are represented by more than 200 species and subspecies distributed in five families. Considering that some of these species are considered endangered, disease investigation in these populations is critical for conservation ...

Myrmecovory in Neotropical primates [PDF]
Ants are the dominant group of animals in many habitats, particularly in tropical rainforests. High abundance and formation of large colonies convert them into a potential food source for a broad spectrum of animals.

IgM antibody responses against Plasmodium antigens in neotropical primates in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest [PDF]
Introduction Zoonotic transmission is a challenge for the control and elimination of malaria. It has been recorded in the Atlantic Forest, outside the Amazon which is the endemic region in Brazil. However, only very few studies have assessed the antibody

Sperm Morphology in Neotropical Primates [PDF]
The morphological and morphometric characterization of spermatozoa has been used as a taxonomic and phylogenetic tool for different species of mammals. We evaluated and compared the sperm morphometry of five neotropical primate species: Alouatta caraya ...

Identification of Plasmodium spp. in Neotropical primates of Maranhense Amazon in Northeast Brazil [PDF]
In the Brazilian Amazon region, malaria caused by Plasmodium malariae is considered to be a zoonosis because of cross-transfer of the parasite between humans and Neotropical primates.

Thoracic ultrasound for diagnosing pneumopathies in neotropical primates [PDF]
Lung ultrasound can be useful for the early diagnosis and treatment of respiratory complications. The combination of air and soft tissue confirms imaging artefacts that can contribute to differentiation between healthy and deteriorated lung tissue ...

Characterization of circulating natural killer cells in neotropical primates. [PDF]
Despite extensive use of nonhuman primates as models for infectious diseases and reproductive biology, imprecise phenotypic and functional definitions exist for natural killer (NK) cells.
