Measuring Salivary Cortisol in Wild Carnivores [PDF]
Hormones and Behavior, 2021 ABSTRACTSalivary hormone analyses provide a useful alternative to fecal and urinary hormone analyses in non-invasive studies of behavioral endocrinology. Here, we use saliva to assess cortisol levels in a wild population of spotted hyenas (Crocuta crocuta), a gregarious carnivore living in complex social groups.

Automated Measurement of Salivary Cortisol [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 2003 A new serum cortisol assay was introduced on the Elecsys (Roche), a random access analyzer, with reportedly good performance in the low (nmol/L) concentration range (preliminary data provided by the manufacturer) and with low cross-reactivity with cortisone [0.3% at 2.7 μmol/L cortisone (package insert)]. This prompted us to evaluate the performance of
