Longitudinal Characterization of Escherichia coli in Healthy Captive Non-Human Primates
The gastrointestinal (GI) tracts of non-human primates (NHPs) are well known to harbor Escherichia coli, a known commensal of human beings and animals.

Diarrhea in captive NHPs has long been...

متن کاملEstablishing 'quality of life' parameters using behavioural guidelines for humane euthanasia of captive non-human primates.

At most research institutions and zoological parks in the USA, a veterinarian, who has physically examined the animal and reviewed the clinical records, ultimately decides when an animal has reached a humane endpoint. To aid in...
