Control of intestinal parasites is a major concern in maintaining the health and well-being of captive primates. This study established that percutaneous application of ivermectin was as effective as subcutaneous administration for the control of nematodes in captive rhesus macaques. The method is less intrusive than the standard subcutaneous or oral delivery routes and did not adversely affect the health of any of the study subjects.
控制肠道寄生虫是维持圈养灵长类动物健康和福祉的主要关注点。本研究证实，对于圈养恒河猴的线虫控制，经皮应用伊维菌素与皮下给药同样有效。该方法比标准的皮下或口服给药途径侵入性更小，且对任何研究对象的健康均无不利影响。
