Camels as a Climate‐Resilient Linchpin for Sustainable Development in Global Drylands

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Camels represent a significant, yet underutilized, asset for advancing integrated sustainable development in the world's expanding drylands. Previous reviews have examined camels' physiology, milk composition, or pastoral systems in isolation; this review examines their potential as a climate‐resilient linchpin for food systems by synthesizing

Procurement of camelid fiber in the hyperarid Atacama Desert coast : Insights from stable isotopes

, 2020
Publisher Copyright: © 2019Pastoralism and camelid management are traditionally attributed to the sociopolitical, economic and cosmovision of Andean populations, rather than to lowland hunter gatherer societies, living on the Pacific coast where camelid ...

Quantitative Imaging of Human Hemoglobin Binding to Staphylococcus aureus With Single‐Molecule Resolution

Small, EarlyView.
Single‐molecule localization microscopy is exploited to quantify the number of hemoglobin copies bound to specific receptors on S. aureus wall. This quantification supports the design of a photoactive derivative of hemoglobin able to photo‐inactivate S.

Deiminated Proteins in Extracellular Vesicles and Serum of Llama (Lama glama) - Novel Insights into Camelid Immunity [PDF]

, 2020
Peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) are phylogenetically conserved calcium-dependent enzymes which post-translationally convert arginine into citrulline in target proteins in an irreversible manner, causing functional and structural changes in target ...

Evaluation of a non‐radioactive rapid test for determination of serum progesterone in South American camelids

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Determination of the serum progesterone (P4) concentration is of high importance in reproductive medicine and may be applied for diagnosing pregnancy in South American camelids. P4 measurements in alpacas and llamas are usually performed using immunoassays, which are time consuming and require appropriate expertise of laboratory ...
