  • Title: Age determination of common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) by radiographic examination of skeletal development.
    Author: Nassar-Montoya F, Sainsbury AW, Kirkwood JK, du Boulay GH.
    Journal: J Med Primatol; 1992 Jul; 21(5):259-64. PubMed ID: 1404334.
    Abstract:
    Seventy-four animals were examined radiographically to determine the skeletal development of the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) from 6 months of age. Twenty-one epiphyses were examined and five stages of ossification were described for each. The animals were divided into nine groups, according to age, and a table of the stage of ossification and age was produced, which may be used for determining the age of animals of unknown history.
