Evaluation of vitamin D3 metabolites in Callithrix jacchus (common marmoset)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "American Journal of Primatology"
DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23131
Abstract: Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is endogenously produced in the skin of primates when exposed to the appropriate wavelengths of ultraviolet light (UV‐B). Common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) maintained indoors require dietary provision of vitamin D3 due to… read more here.

Ecological stoichiometry of functional traits in a colonial harmful cyanobacterium
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Limnology and Oceanography"
DOI: 10.1002/lno.11744
Abstract: Trait-based approaches provide a mechanistic framework crossing scales from cellular traits to community dynamics, while ecological stoichiometry applies first principles to understand how the balance of energy and elements shape ecological interactions. However, few studies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/mbo3.988
Abstract: Mycobacterium kansasii (Mk) is a resilient opportunistic human pathogen that causes tuberculosis‐like chronic pulmonary disease and mortality stemming from comorbidities and treatment failure. The standard treatment of Mk infections requires costly, long‐term, multidrug courses with… read more here.
