research Dermatophytosis in sheep due to Trichophyton mentagrophytes; occurrence, haemato-biochemical and pathomorphological changes*
Trichophyton mentagrophytes causes skin issues and nutrient deficiencies in young sheep, especially in winter.
research Note on Isocholesterol, Coprosterol and the Classification of the Sterols
Isocholesterol, initially questioned for its existence, was confirmed as a distinct sterol through experiments by Schulze and later Moreschi, who obtained it from wool fat. Its presence in the latex of South African rubber plants, containing 6% rubber and 70% resin, further supported its classification. Cohen's comparison of plant-derived isocholesterol with Schulze's original sample confirmed their identity, solidifying isocholesterol's status as a recognized sterol.
