6 Aotus trivirgatus monkeys, which had all spontaneously recovered from an experimentally induced Plasmodium falciparum infection, were included in a clinical study concentrating on possible adverse reactions caused by a vaccine using late schizonts and merozoites as an antigen a synthetic compound,

Erythrocytes from Aotus and Saimiri monkeys parasitized by Plasmodium vivax show dramatic changes starting during the early stages of parasite development. Invaginations of the erythrocyte membrane, caveolae, are found during all parasite development stages. Up to six vesicles can be fused with one

Eight Aotus trivirgatus monkeys were included in a comparative study of adverse reactions caused by 3 types of malarial vaccine. The antigen consisted of late schizonts and merozoites combined with each of 3 adjuvants, a lipoidal amine CP-20,961, a muramyl dipeptide derivative [B30]-MDP, or Freund's

Owl monkeys (Aotus trivirgatus) were inoculated with XJ, a pathogenic strain of Junin virus, seeking new animal models for Argentine Hemorrhagic Fever. Nine monkeys were inoculated intramuscularly with 30 or 300,000 TCID50 of junin virus. Hematological and virological studies showed no alteration in

We studied Aotus lemurinus, Panamanian night monkeys, for susceptibility to Toxoplasma infection and for their capacity to develop immunity using either sufadiazine prophylaxis or the non-persistent ts-4 vaccine. The animals were highly susceptible to infection with a mouse pathogenic (T265) and a

Bartonellosis, caused by Bartonella bacilliformis, is a clinically significant disease in parts of South America, where it is characterized by fever and hemolytic anemia during the often-fatal acute stage and warty skin eruptions during chronic disease. In this study, we evaluated owl monkeys (Aotus
