| Popis: | BACKGROUND: A survey was developed to characterize disease incidence, common pathology lesions, environmental characteristics, and nutrition programs within captive research marmoset colonies. METHODS: 17 research facilities completed the electronic survey. RESULTS: Nutritional management programs varied amongst research institutions housing marmosets; eight primary base diets were reported. The most common clinical syndromes reported were gastrointestinal (GI) disease (i.e. inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) like disease, chronic lymphocytic enteritis (CLE), chronic malabsorption, chronic diarrhea), metabolic bone disease or fracture, infectious diarrhea, and oral disease (tooth root abscesses, gingivitis, tooth root resorption). The five most common pathology morphologic diagnoses were colitis, nephropathy/ nephritis, enteritis, chronic lymphoplasmacytic enteritis, and cholecystitis. Obesity was more common (average 20% of a reporting institution’s population) than thin body condition (average 5%). CONCLUSIONS: Through review of current practices, we aim to inspire development of evidence based practices to standardize husbandry and nutrition practices for marmoset research colonies. |
