Fundamental investigations of viral gene regulation, protein structure and function, and particle assembly are integrated with studies of the determinants of immunologic protection against HIV and viral pathogenesis. Study requirements mandate diagnostics and clinical pathological evaluation of blood and other bodily fluids from non-human primates in a consistent manner to allow the results of past and future studies to be compared and analyzed upon completion. This is as a follow-on to studies previously conducted by Antech Diagnostics, Inc. There are too many Rhesus monkeys (over 700), there is too much history with Antech-s results and Antech has been the hallmark of the testing for this exhaustive project, and as LMM nears completion of this study they cannot entertain discussions with another vendor.
