  • Title: Growth standards in the skeletal age of rhesus monkey (M. mulatta) chimpanzee (Pan tryglodytes) and man.
    Author: Michejda M.
    Journal: Dev Biol Stand; 1980; 45():45-50. PubMed ID: 6772510.
    Abstract:
    Various methods of age assessment in nonhuman primates of unknown gestation or chronological age are discussed. The most precise of all methods, the utilization of skeletal age (appendicular bone maturation), is described. The prenatal growth standards and age indicators of M. mulatta are discussed and compared to Pan tryglodytes and man. Also several post-natal growth standards comparable in M. mulatta, Pan tryglodytes and man are presented. The determination of unknown age of experimental animals which provide an accurate basis of comparison with human material is discussed.
