Health monitoring programs in animals used as experimental models are essential, since only disease-free subjects are considered suitable for research purposes.

However, the occurrence of hemoplasma species in laboratory-kept NHP in Brazil has not-yet been assessed. Accordingly, this study aimed (i) to sc
