AN INEXPENSIVE HEAD RESTRAINT SYSTEM FOR LONG TERM INTRAVENOUS ADMINISTRATION OF DRUGS IN THE MONKEY

Abstract

A head restraint system allowing intravenous administration and self-administration of compounds in monkeys under conditions of minimal restraint is described. The system has functioned well even with large male Macaques and requires no handling of the subjects for administration of drugs. Additional advantages of the present system, its ease of fabrication, light weight, and low cost are discussed.
