Abstract

A zoonotic disease is transmissible from vertebrate animals to humans. This article focuses on pertinent zoonotic diseases that have to be taken into consideration when working with nonhuman primate (NHP) species. Many factors may influence the occurrence of these diseases. Human and NHPs share many similarities, not only anatomically but also physiologically. NHP are valuable models for many human infectious diseases; therefore, staff can be exposed to many potential pathogens. In general, the disease state of a primate can range from asymptomatic carrier to death from infection.

摘要

人畜共患病是指可从脊椎动物传播给人类的疾病。本文重点关注在与非人灵长类动物（NHP）打交道时必须考虑的相关人畜共患病。许多因素可能影响这些疾病的发生。人类和非人灵长类动物不仅在解剖学上，而且在生理上都有许多相似之处。非人灵长类动物是许多人类传染病的宝贵模型；因此，工作人员可能会接触到许多潜在病原体。一般来说，灵长类动物的疾病状态范围可从无症状携带者到因感染而死亡。
