In 1926 they disproved Hideyo Noguchi's hypothesis that yellow fever was caused by the bacterium Leptospira icteroides, and in 1928 ( the year after the disease was identified conclusively as a virus ), they showed that the African and South American viruses are immunologically identical ( after Adrian Stokes induced yellow fever in Rhesus monkeys from India ).

He found the virus was not transmittable to Rhesus monkeys, and that only some mice developed symptoms.

" There was a Rhesus 1, who had failed Lord Nebula, and was destroyed ( though he was eventually reborn as a being called the Glyph ).

Lord Nebula made it clear that this was a possibility for Rhesus 2 if he also failed him.

In following year, the team produced another Rhesus macaque, named Andi, who was the first genetically modified monkey.

Bruce Chown, ( November 10, 1893 – July 3, 1986 ) was a Canadian scientist who researched the blood factor known as the Rhesus factor and helped produced a Rh immune vaccine, Rh gamma globulin, which helps to prevent Erythroblastosis fetalis.

Although the infecting parasite was initially identified as P. falciparum, one day later it was then identified as P. malariae and it was only confirmed to be P. knowlesi after infected blood was used to inoculate Rhesus monkeys.

Later in the Iliad, Rhesus, another Thracian king, makes an appearance.

Late mythographers, such as the author of the Bibliotheca and Servius, describe the Thracian king Rhesus, who appears in the Iliad, as son of Euterpe and the river-god Strymon ; Homer calls him son of Eioneus.

Rhesus macaques have on average 50 vertebrae.

Rhesus macaques are noted for their tendency to move from rural to urban areas, coming to rely on handouts or refuse from humans.

If the mother is Rh negative and the baby is Rh positive, the mother produces antibodies ( including IgG ) against the Rhesus D antigen on her baby's red blood cells.

In 1980, Prof Cyril Clarke, Dr Ronald Finn, Dr John Gorman, Dr Vincent Freda, and Dr William Pollack each received an Albert Lasker Award for Clinical Medical Research for their work on Rhesus blood types and the prevention of Rh disease.

* 1980-Lasker Award-Prof Cyril Clarke, together with Dr Ronald Finn, Dr John Gorman, Dr Vincent Freda, and Dr William Pollack were jointly awarded the Albert Lasker Award for Clinical Medical Research for their pioneering work on the Rhesus blood group system, the role of Rhesus D antibodies in the causation of Rh disease and the prevention of Rh disease.

After passing the yellow fever virus through laboratory mice, Theiler found that the weakened virus conferred immunity on Rhesus monkeys.

The off-screen dialogue heard over the opening credits explains the time travel experiment as having the goal of sending a Rhesus monkey to the year 1862 ( According to the inscription on the canister containing the monkey, which Swann reads aloud, the experiment begins on November 4, 1982 ).
