Investigating the Effect of Vitamin D Supplementation on Maternal Serum 25(OH)D Levels [PDF]
Background & aim: Although evidence confirms the importance of vitamin D supplementation in pregnancy, there is still a debate over the adequate daily doses of vitamin D intake. This study aimed to investigate the effect of 400 and 1,000 IU vitamin D/day

A Simple Micromethod for 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Estimation [PDF]
A quick and simple method for estimating 25-hydroxyvitamin D is described. It involves dichloromethane extraction followed by competitive protein-binding assay without chromatography. This assay can be performed on 100 μl of serum and enables 50 samples to be estimated in one working day.

Analytical Performance Specifications for 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Examinations [PDF]
Currently the 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25(OH)D) concentration is thought to be the best estimate of the vitamin D status of an individual. Unfortunately, its measurement remains complex, despite recent technological advances. We evaluated the biological variation (BV) of 25(OH)D in order to set analytical performance specifications (APS) for measurement ...

DHCR7 mutations linked to higher vitamin D status allowed early human migration to Northern latitudes [PDF]
Vitamin D is essential for a wide range of physiological processes including immune function and calcium homeostasis. Recent investigations have identified candidate genes which are strongly linked to concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D. Since there is
