[Therapy of salmonellosis in Macaca arctoides].
Four clinically normal M. arctoides shed Salmonella infantis after the stress of transportation. One animal developed diarrhea and died. After therapy with 30 mg chloramphenicol/kg BW orally for two times eight days, thereafter 10 mg neomycin/kg BW orally for eight days and finally 2 mg gentamicin/kg BW i. m., they still shed S. infantis. Oral application of daily 100 mg ofloxacin (Tarivid) for 10 days and repetition of that same therapy for seven days after one week without therapy terminated salmonellas-shedding. The animals were released from quarantine and transferred into the zoo's monkey house.
