| Popis: | EnglishBearded Capuchin or Black-striped Capuchin monkeys (Sapajus lidibinosus) are New World robust capuchin monkeys widely used in medical research. Few data are available concerning hematological reference values for these species, with no studies available from the Northeast region in Brazil. The aim of this study was to determine the hematological reference values for healthy bearded capuchin monkeys and to analyze the influence of sex and age factors. Blood samples were collected from 50 healthy bearded capuchin monkeys housed in captivity. These were analysed for total erythrocyte, hemoglobin, leukocyte and platelet count, packed cell volume (PCV), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC). When considering the age factor, significant differences were reported for total erythrocyte count, PCV, hemoglobin, total leucocytes, band neutrophils, eosinophils and lymphocytes (higher in juveniles). Significant sex-associated differences were noted for total erythrocyte count, PCV, hemoglobin (higher in males) and number of lymphocytes (higher in females).We have reported for the first time the hematological profile of bearded capuchin monkeys in captivity in the state of Paraiba, Brazil. These results can contribute for a better understanding of the normal physiology of capuchin monkeys, while demonstrating that factors such as sex and age influence hematological parameters should be taken into consideration in the hematological evaluation of this species.

Poucos dados estao disponiveis sobre valores de referencia hematologicos para essas especies, e nao ha estudos na regiao Nordeste no Brasil. O nosso objetivo foi determinar os valores de referencia hematologicos para macacos-prego saudaveis e analisar a influencia de fatores como o sexo e a idade. Foram coletadas amostras de sangue de 50 macacos-prego saudaveis alojados em cativeiro. Determinaram-se as contagens de eritrocitos, hemoglobina, leucocitos e plaquetas, hematocrito, volume corpuscular medio (MCV), hemoglobina corpuscular media (MCH) e concentracao media de hemoglobina corpuscular (MCHC). Foram encontradas diferencas significativas relacionadas a idade para a contagem total de eritrocitos, hematocrito, hemoglobina, leucocitos totais, neutrofilos em banda, eosinofilos e linfocitos (maior em juvenis). Diferencas significativas associadas ao sexo foram observadas para a contagem total de eritrocitos, hematocrito, hemoglobina (maior nos machos) e numero de linfocitos (maior nas femeas). Relatamos o primeiro perfil hematologico de macacos-prego alojados em cativeiro no estado da Paraiba, Brasil. Estes resultados contribuem para uma melhor compreensao da normal fisiologia dos macacos-prego e demonstram que fatores como sexo e a idade tem influencia e devem ser considerados na sua avaliacao hematologica.
