| the jump as a fast mode of locomotion in arboreal and terrestrial biotopes. | the jump is always used for locomotion. for its execution in arboreal and terrestrial biotopes the requirements are of somewhat different nature. in an arboreal biotope the jump is characterized by a rapid progression through discontinuous substrates and the ability to take off from a small area and a secure landing on a spot. this requires well coordinated movements in all phases of the jump. on the ground, the jump is less frequent and often used for crossing obstacles or gaps. in primates bot ... | 1991 | 1887664 |
| conscious sedation and analgesia with rectal ketamine in the macaca fuscata monkey. | conscious sedation is commonly utilized in pediatric dentistry. although opioid analgesics are often employed, patient safety would be enhanced if nonopioid drugs were used. the purpose of this study was to determine if rectal ketamine could produce plasma concentrations that would achieve both conscious sedation and analgesia to gingival needle puncture. five 2-year-old male macaca fuscata monkeys were given rectal ketamine at a dosage of 60 mg/kg and 90 mg/kg one week apart. blood was drawn at ... | 1991 | 1811429 |
