Serum and urine analytes were compared between adult wild-caught owl monkeys (Aotus nancymae) and adult wild-caught squirrel monkeys (Saimiri peruviensis) to determine if normative clinical pathology data were similar. An objective of the study was to confirm that species of neotropical primates are distinct with regard to physiologic parameters, and should not be considered interchangeable in biomedical research. Significant differences (P < 0.05) were noted in many serum and urine analytes between the two groups. The results suggest that reference data for wild-caught owl monkeys are not applicable to squirrel monkeys, and the differences are sufficiently large to be of clinical significance. These findings illuminate the diversity among species of neotropical primates.
比较成年野生捕获的夜猴（南希夜猴）和成年野生捕获的松鼠猴（秘鲁松鼠猴）的血清和尿液分析物，以确定标准临床病理学数据是否相似。该研究的一个目的是确认新热带灵长类动物物种在生理参数方面是不同的，在生物医学研究中不应被视为可互换的。两组之间在许多血清和尿液分析物中发现了显著差异（P < 0.05）。结果表明，野生捕获的夜猴的参考数据不适用于松鼠猴，且差异足够大，具有临床意义。这些发现揭示了新热带灵长类动物物种之间的多样性。
