Journal ArticleDOI
Salivary melatonin as a circadian phase marker: validation and comparison to plasma melatonin
TL;DR: The results firmly establish the use of salivary melatonin measurements for phase typing of the melatonin rhythm in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of melatonin feeding on serum prolactin and gonadotropin levels and the onset of seasonal estrous cyclicity in sheep.
TL;DR: The feeding of melatonin had no apparent effect on the baseline serum levels of either FSH or LH, the frequency and amplitude of the LH peaks, or the changes evoked in serum PRL after the ...
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of melatonin production in infants and the impact of prematurity.
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that neural centers responsible for rhythm generation and/or the pineal gland fail to accelerate their development after premature delivery, and this may be due to the environment the infants are exposed to during their stay in hospital.
Journal ArticleDOI
A specific radioimmunoassay for melatonin in biological tissue and fluids and its validation by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.
TL;DR: A specific practical radioimmunoassay suited to determinations of melatonin in both tissues and body fluids is described, and its occurrence in the plasma of man, sheep, rat and chicken was confirmed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential effects of light wavelength in phase advancing the melatonin rhythm
TL;DR: Shorter wavelength light has been shown to be more effective than longer wavelengths in suppressing nocturnal melatonin and phase delaying the melatonin rhythm, strengthening earlier findings that the human circadian system is more sensitive to the short wavelengths of light than the longer wavelengths.
