Determination of Salivary Cortisol in Donkey Stallions [PDF]
Salivary cortisol provides information about free plasma cortisol concentration and salivary sampling is a non-invasive well-tolerate procedure. The aim of this study was to validate a commercial enzyme immunoassay for the determination of salivary cortisol in donkeys.

Orangulas: effect of scheduled visual enrichment on behavioral and endocrine aspects of a captive orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) [PDF]
Captivity may have adverse effects on captive great apes, as they spend much more of their time engaged in foraging and other activities in the wild. Enrichment interventions have the potential to alleviate the adverse effects of captivity by introducing

Light Affects Morning Salivary Cortisol in Humans [PDF]
The effect of light on the morning-cortisol peak in humans was investigated in fourteen healthy men by exposing them to darkness and to light of 800 lux during a 1-h period on two subsequent mornings. In the early morning, we demonstrated a temporary increase of salivary cortisol levels after awakening, while light exposure resulted in a +/- 35 ...
