Five baboons delivered by cesarean section were placed in sterile isolation and maintained in this environment for varying periods of time. Four of these neonates were inoculated at birth with viral material and used in special studies. The fifth animal was not inoculated and remained germfree for 11 1/2 mo. Hematologic observations were made on all these subjects. The animals reared in sterile isolators had stable erythrocyte values as compared with those of their conventional counterpart. Conventionally-reared baboons had higher leukocyte counts than the infants in a sterile environment, and the lymphocyte numbers of isolator-reared infants increased at a slower rate than the conventional infants.
五只通过剖宫产分娩的狒狒被置于无菌隔离环境中，并在该环境中饲养不同的时间段。其中四只新生狒狒在出生时接种了病毒材料并用于特殊研究。第五只动物未接种，在11个半月的时间里保持无菌状态。对所有这些实验对象进行了血液学观察。与传统饲养的狒狒相比，在无菌隔离器中饲养的动物红细胞值稳定。传统饲养的狒狒白细胞计数高于无菌环境中的幼崽，并且隔离器饲养的幼崽淋巴细胞数量的增长速度比传统饲养的幼崽慢。
