Abstract
This article presents the results of 10-year research studies conducted using minipigs at the Scientific Center of Biomedical Technologies. Comparisons with the most significant laboratory animals are presented. Prospects for involving minipigs in various biomedical manipulations as an alternative to monkeys, whose use is restricted, are shown.
