Standardized Full-Field Electroretinography in the Green Monkey (Chlorocebus sabaeus)
Full-field electroretinography is an objective measure of retinal function, serving as an important diagnostic clinical tool in ophthalmology for evaluating the integrity of the retina. Given the similarity between the anatomy and physiology of the human and Green Monkey eyes, this species has increasingly become a favorable non-human primate model for assessing ocular defects in humans. To tes...
متن کاملFull-Field versus Multifocal Electroretinography
Full field electroretinography (ffERG) or conventional electroretinography represents the summed electrical response of the entire retina evoked by a flash light from an arc bowl (Ganzfeld stimulus bow) scattered in the eye through a dilated pupil. Clinical applications of ffERG were initiated in the 1940s, therefore clinical and basic studies on ERG date back to several decades. In 1989, the I...
متن کاملThe genome of the vervet (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus).
We describe a genome reference of the African green monkey or vervet (Chlorocebus aethiops). This member of the Old World monkey (OWM) superfamily is uniquely valuable for genetic investigations of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), for which it is the most abundant natural host species, and of a wide range of health-related phenotypes assessed in Caribbean vervets (C. a. sabaeus), whose numb...
متن کاملNormal Values of Standard Full Field Electroretinography in Healthy Subjects in Northern Iran
Background: Electroretinography (ERG) is known as a diagnostic test for evaluating the performance of different layers of the retina. Its normal values maybe different in different populations. Objectives: Determining the normal values of ERG parameters in patients presenting to an ophthalmologic center in Guilan in northern Iran. Materials and Methods: Fifty-five people presenting to a teach...
متن کاملA preliminary investigation on the gastrointestinal helminths of the Barbados green monkey, Cercopithecus aethiops sabaeus.
Faecal samples were collected from fifty three freshly captured monkeys which were kept at the Barbados Primate Research Centre and Wildlife Reserve (BPRCWR). Examination of these samples for gastrointestinal helminths using the zinc sulphate floatation method revealed an overall infection rate of 88.7%. The parasites observed included Strongyloides (62.4%), Physaloptera (58.5%), Trichuris (52....
