  • Title: Hematologic, biochemical, and physiologic indices of the sacred baboon (Papio hamadryas).
    Author: Renquist DM, Montrey RD, Hooks JE, Manus AG.
    Journal: Lab Anim Sci; 1977 Apr; 27(2):271-5. PubMed ID: 857092.
    Abstract:
    Hematologic, biochemical, and physiologic indices for a recently imported group of sacred baboons, Papio hamadryas, were studied over a 6-week period. Hematologic values were in agreement with results recorded for other species of baboons. Blood biochemical data were consistent with findings previously reported for other baboons and for man except that alkaline phosphatase levels were higher than previously for other baboons but similar to those reported for man; lactic dehydrogenase levels were higher than for man but lower than for other baboons; cholesterol levels were within the range for baboons but lower than for man; and creatinine and uric acid levels were lower and amylase levels were higher than those for man. Temperature and respiration and pulse rates were in agreement with those reported for other baboons.
