| secnidazole vs. paromomycin: comparative antiprotozoan treatment in captive primates. | the antiprotozoan activity of secnidazole was studied in cercocebus t. torquatus, cercopithecus campbelli, erythrocebus patas (cercopithecidae), and gorilla gorilla (pongidae) compared with that of paromomycin in cercocebus t. lunulatus (cercopithecidae), e. patas, and g. gorilla (pongidae) by coprological analysis. the antiprotozoan activity of both drugs depended on the parasite species and the host species. the drugs acted in a similar way on entamoeba coli parasitising c. t. torquatus, and e ... | 1998 | 9606042 |
| diversity and prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in seven non-human primates of the taï national park, côte d'ivoire. | parasites and infectious diseases are well-known threats to primate populations. the main objective of this study was to provide baseline data on fecal parasites in the cercopithecid monkeys inhabiting côte d'ivoire's taï national park. seven of eight cercopithecid species present in the park were sampled: cercopithecus diana, cercopithecus campbelli, cercopithecus petaurista, procolobus badius, procolobus verus, colobus polykomos, and cercocebus atys. we collected 3142 monkey stool samples betw ... | 2015 | 25619957 |
