Beetle-bearing coprolites possibly reveal the diet of a Late Triassic dinosauriform [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Diets of extinct animals can be difficult to analyse if no direct evidence, such as gut contents, is preserved in association with body fossils. Inclusions from coprolites (fossil faeces), however, may also reflect the diet of the host animal and become ...

Carbon and nitrogen isotopic ratios of urine and faeces as novel nutritional biomarkers of meat and fish intake [PDF]
, 2012 Purpose Meat and fish consumption are associated with changes in the risk of chronic diseases. Intake is mainly assessed using self-reporting, as no true quantitative nutritional biomarker is available.

Using palaeoenvironmental DNA to reconstruct past environments: progress and prospects [PDF]
, 2014 Palaeoenvironmental DNA (PalEnDNA) is defined as ancient DNA (aDNA) originating from disseminated genetic material within palaeoenvironmental samples. Sources of PalEnDNA include marine and lake sediments, peat, loess, till, ice, permafrost, palaeosols ...

Lipid analysis of vertebrate coprolites [PDF]
, 2012 Lipid analysis is a relatively new approach to obtaining paleobiological and paleoecological information from coprolites. Lipids in feces are derived from multiple sources, including diet, digestive processes and digestive tract micro-organisms. Feces from herbivorous animals contain a much wider range of lipids than those from carnivores due to the ...

Application of Autofluorescence for Confocal Microscopy to Aid in Archaeoparasitological Analyses [PDF]
, 2019 Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) was used to examine archaeoparasitological specimens from coprolites associated with La Cueva de los Muertos Chiquitos (CMC) located near present-day Durango, Mexico.

A unique Valanginian paleoenvironment at an iron ore deposit near Zengővárkony (Mecsek Mts, South Hungary), and a possible genetic model [PDF]
, 2007 The spatially restricted Early Valanginian iron ore (limonite) and manganese deposit at Zengõvárkony (Mecsek Mts, southern Hungary) contains a rich, strongly limonitized, remarkably large-sized (specimens are 30–70% larger than those at their type ...
