Erythrocytes of the Rhesus and Cynomolgus Monkeys (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book addresses the morphologic, quantitative, and generative aspects of the erythrocytes of the rhesus monkey Macaca mulatta and the cynomolgus monkey Macaca fascicularis (long-tailed macaque, crab-eating monkey). These two species are the most commonly selected nonhuman primates for basic science and clinical medical investigations. Topics include erythropoietic profiles, the role of stress as it is perceived by the monkey and how it impacts erythrocellular values, and the training of the monkey to be a cooperative, unperturbed subject for hematologic study.

Autorenporträt

Chester A. Glomski is professor of anatomy at the State University of New York at Buffalo (SUNYAB) School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. Dr. Glomski earned his PhD from the University of Minnesota and his MD from the University of Mississippi School of Medicine. His research interests include experimental, morphologic, and comparative hematology and the effects of low-dose X-irradiation on hemopoiesis. Dr. Glomski has received a number of awards, including the Alan J. Gross Award for Excellence in Teaching (2011).

Alessandra Pica is an associate professor of hematology in the Department of Biology at the University of Naples (Federico II, Italy). She previously was a consulting hematologist for the Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Program of Zoological Station in Naples Anton Dohrn. Pica has taught a number of courses, some of which include human anatomy, embryology, and experimental morphology; hematology and hemopathology of sea turtles; and hemopathology of sea water vertebrates. She received her bachelor of science degree from the University of Naples and is a member of several scientific organizations.

Jessica F. Greene received a PhD in pharmacology and toxicology from the University of California at Davis, and undergraduate degrees from The Evergreen State College (Olympia, Washington). She has numerous publications in the fields of toxicology and risk assessment. After many years consulting for Exponent, Inc., Dr. Greene is currently CEO of Greene Consulting in Portland, Oregon.
