Methodological considerations in the analysis of fecal glucocorticoid metabolites in tufted capuchins (Cebus apella) [PDF]

, 2013
Analysis of fecal glucocorticoid (GC) metabolites has recently become the standard method to monitor adrenocortical activity in primates noninvasively. However, given variation in the production, metabolism, and excretion of GCs across species and even ...

Shifts in microbial diversity, composition, and functionality in the gut and genital microbiome during a natural SIV infection in vervet monkeys [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND: The microbiota plays an important role in HIV pathogenesis in humans. Microbiota can impact health through several pathways such as increasing inflammation in the gut, metabolites of bacterial origin, and microbial translocation from the gut ...

Stability in fecal metabolites amid a diverse gut microbiome composition: a one-month longitudinal study of variability in healthy individuals

Gut Microbes
An extensive network of microbial-host interactions exists in the gut, making the gut microbiome a complex ecosystem to untangle. The microbial composition and the fecal metabolites are important readouts to investigate intricate microbiota-diet-host ...
