Fast Sampling of the Cellular Metabolome
Obtaining meaningful snapshots of the metabolome of microorganisms requires rapid sampling and immediate quenching of all metabolic activity, to... -
Comparing minimum number of individuals and abundance from non-invasive DNA sampling and camera trap** in the red fox (Vulpes vulpes)
Applying the most appropriate sampling method is essential for estimating population size. Sampling methods and techniques to estimate abundance may...
