I am trying to measure levels of melanin on seabird feathers and correlate that with body condition. Is there a lab where I can send my samples to be analyzed?
Thank you very much Attila, those are interesting papers. My question was more in the sense of a lab where I can send my samples to be analyzed, as I don´t have the facilities to do them.
I recommend the EPR method. I have been using it for long to estimate melanin in hair or in vertebrate skin. See my profile or contact me for more details. Best regards!
