Occurrence of infection by Platynosomum illiciens (Braun, 1901) in captive neotropical primates

Primates, 2011
Platynosomum illiciens (Trematoda, Plagiorchida) is a trematode parasite reported in felids and falconiforms. It was identified in the gall bladder of eight captive neotropical necropsied primates from the National Primate Center (CENP), Ananindeua ...

Workshop Summary: Neotropical Primates in Biomedical Research [PDF]

ILAR Journal, 2011
This report summarizes presentations and discussions at an NIH-sponsored workshop on Neotropical Primates in Biomedical Research, held in September 2010. Neotropical primates (New World monkeys), with their smaller size, faster maturation, and shorter lifespans than Old World monkeys, are efficient models and present unique opportunities for studying ...

Parasites of Neotropical Primates: A Review

International Journal of Primatology, 2018
The study of parasites is of great relevance to primatology given their ecological significance and their effects on primate demography, behavior, and evolution. Moreover, assessing the vulnerability of endangered species to parasitic infections is important in developing appropriate conservation strategies.

The primates of the Neotropics: genomes and chromosomes

Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2004
The classification of neotropical primates has been controversial. Different arrangements have been proposed, depending on taxonomic criteria and on the traits selected for phylogenetic reconstructions. These include gross morphologic characters, karyotypic attributes and DNA sequence data of nuclear and mitochondrial genes and of repetitive genomic ...

Neotropical primate conservation

Journal of Human Evolution, 1989
Abstract The greatest threat to Neotropical primates is the loss of tropical forest for agriculture, ranching, commercial logging and hydroelectric projects. Hunting of primates for consumption or sale and live capture for the pet trade and for biomedical purposes is also a threat to certain species. Twenty-eight of the 76 Neotropical primate species

Identification of Bacterial Infection in Neotropical Primates

Microbial Ecology, 2013
Emerging infectious diseases usually arise from wild animal populations. In the present work, we performed a screening for bacterial infection in natural populations of New World primates. The blood cell bulk DNAs from 181 individuals of four Platyrrhini genera were PCR screened for eubacterial 16S rRNA genes.

Arterial vascularization of the mandible and maxilla of neotropical primates

American Journal of Primatology, 2006
The objective of the present investigation was to conduct a comparative macroscopic study of the arterial vascularization of the mandible and maxilla of neotropical primates of the genera Cebus, Alouatta, Callithrix, and Leontopithecus. After vinyl was injected into the arterial system of the head of each specimen, the pieces were macerated and ...

β 2 -microglobulin in neotropical primates (Platyrrhini)

Immunogenetics, 1998
Nucleotide sequences for the three exons of the beta2-microglobulin (beta2m) gene (B2m) were determined for 135 animals representing 37 species and all 16 genera of neotropical primates (Platyrrhini). Twenty-eight different nucleotide sequences, encoding for 26 different proteins, were obtained.

Serosurvey for hepatitis A in neotropical primates in southeast Brazil

Journal of Medical Primatology, 2014
Background Hepatitis A virus (HAV) is the cause of a zoonotic disease, which has only humans and non-humans primates as its natural hosts. Methods The seroprevalence of antibodies anti-HAV in wild and captive neotropical primates were investigated ...

Zika Virus in Peridomestic Neotropical Primates, Northeast Brazil

EcoHealth, 2019
Zika virus (ZIKV) is a mosquito-borne viral disease associated with fetal microcephaly and other central nervous system (CNS) symptomatology. It was first identified in a Rhesus macaque in Uganda in 1947 and later in humans (Zika fever). In 2015, ZIKV was notified in Northeast Brazil where it was associated with CNS alterations and with rapid epidemic ...
