• Noninvasive endocrine data for behavioural studies : the importance of validation (2004, background): “Koren et al. (2002) documented a protocol for the extraction of testosterone and cortisol from hair obtained from the rock hyrax, Procavia capensis.”
• A non‐invasive stress assay based upon measurement of free cortisol released into the water by rainbow trout (2004, methodology): “…problems inherent in blood sampling, avian and mammalian researchers have developed methods to measure corticosteroid concentrations either less invasively (in hair and saliva samples) or non-invasively (in urine and faecal samples) (Parrot & Misson, 1989; Wasser et al., 2000; Koren et al., 2002).”
• Hair cortisol as a biological marker of chronic stress: current status, future directions and unanswered questions. (2012, background): “One of the earliest studies examining whether cortisol could be detected in hair was performed by Koren et al. (2002) using hair from wild hyraxes (small herbivorous mammals).”
• Hair cortisol levels in dairy cows from winter housing to summer highland grazing (2011, background): “The use of hair as a suitable biological matrix to assess cortisol levels in animals has been recently proposed by several authors (Accorsi et al., 2008; Davenport et al., 2006; Koren et al., 2002).”
• Heavily hunted wolves have higher stress and reproductive steroids than wolves with lower hunting pressure (2015, background): “Although linking hair samples to a specific time period is more challenging in species with non-seasonal or unknown moult patterns, a number of studies have found that hair hormone levels reflect chronic, baseline levels relating to interesting biological and ecological patterns (Koren et al. 2002; ”
• Non-invasive measurement of steroids in fish-holding water: important considerations when applying the procedure to behaviour studies (2008, unknown): “, 1996) or hair (Koren et al., 2002).”
