Background: It was suggested that Equine herpesvirus 9 (EHV-9) could be transmitted to higher non-human primates.
Methods: Four cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) were inoculated with EHV-9 by the nasal route.
Results: No abnormalities were observed pathologically, immunohistochemically, and genetically.
Conclusions: These findings indicate that cynomolgus monkeys are not susceptible to EHV-9.
