New Enzyme Immunoassay for Salivary Cortisol [PDF]
The measurement of salivary cortisol is emerging as the simplest approach in the diagnosis of Cushing syndrome (1)(2)(3). One of the problems with previous methods is the lack of a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared method. We have evaluated an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for salivary cortisol marketed by Salimetrics (State College, PA) and ...

Salivary and Free Serum Cortisol Evaluation [PDF]
Physiologic free serum cortisol may more accurately reflect adrenal function than total cortisol levels. Salivary cortisol estimates free serum cortisol. We researched the clinical viability of salivary cortisol in hospitalized patients.Free serum cortisol, and salivary cortisol were measured via ELISA in hospitalized and outpatient patients.We ...
