WANPRC BREEDING COLONIES

这个子项目是利用资源的许多研究子项目之一。 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。对子项目的主要支持 子项目的首席调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括美国国立卫生研究院的其他来源。为子项目列出的总成本可能 表示该子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 不是由NCRR赠款提供给次级项目或次级项目工作人员的直接资金。 背景：华盛顿国家灵长类研究中心(WaNPRC)的非人类灵长类繁殖群体的子集在TNPRC维持到2010年7月。方法：来自这些群体的动物被用来支持WaNPRC的研究计划。这个群体由大约273只辫子猕猴和20只狒狒组成，它们生活在户外的社会团体中。兽医护理和饲养按照TNPRC标准操作程序进行。对所有繁殖的群体动物每年至少进行两次盘点程序，包括采血、体检、驱虫治疗、鉴定和结核病检测。血液样本是在盘点时提取的，用于病毒筛查或基因测试。必要时还采集了其他样本。患病的动物被从群体中移出，并被关在室内进行诊断和治疗。结果/讨论：截至2010年7月，WaNPRC将所有动物(273只新线虫和20只Papio spp)重新安置到其他设施。目前没有WaNPRC繁殖的群体动物在TNPRC。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. Background: A subset of the nonhuman primate breeding colonies of the Washington National Primate Research Center (WaNPRC) were maintained at the TNPRC until July 2010. Methods: Animals derived from these colonies are used to support the research program at the WaNPRC. The colony consisted of approximately 273 pigtail macaques and 20 baboons housed in outdoor social groups. Veterinary care and husbandry were performed as per TNPRC standard operating procedures. Inventory procedures were performed a minimum of twice annually for all breeding colony animals and consisted of blood sampling, physical examination, anthelmintic treatment, identification, and TB testing. Blood samples were drawn at the time of inventory for viral screening or genetic testing. Other samples were taken as necessary. Ill animals were removed from the colony and housed indoors for diagnosis and treatment. Results/Discussion: As of July 2010, WaNPRC relocated all animals (273 M.nemestrina and 20 Papio spp) to other facilities. No WaNPRC breeding colony animals are currently at the TNPRC.
