Abstract: Cortisol metabolites are a class of steroid substances that are secreted by the adrenal cortex in the face of various environmental stressors to regulate stress behavior and homeostasis in animals. In recent years, non-invasive methods of collecting fecal samples for analysis of cortisol metabolites have been widely used in non-human primate studies, since direct blood measurements of cortisol metabolites in wild animals are often not feasible. In this paper, the research progress of fecal cortisol metabolites in primates in recent years is reviewed, mainly, focusing on the relationship and role of cortisol in primate reproduction, intestinal microflora, social behavior and other aspects. At the same time, the detection methods of fecal cortisol metabolites are briefly summarized, and the potential application of detection of fecal cortisol metabolites in primates is pointed out, aiming to provide basic knowledge for further study of fecal cortisol metabolites in different primate populations, and theoretical reference for future research.

Key words: primates, fecal cortisol metabolites, stress response, cortisol, physiological ecology
