Comparative analysis of salivary cortisol measurements using different assay methods in relation to serum-free cortisol measurement

Practical Laboratory Medicine
Objectives: Salivary cortisol reflects the biologically active form of serum cortisol, offering a noninvasive evaluation method for the diurnal rhythm of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. While liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (

Salivary and Free Serum Cortisol Evaluation [PDF]

Military Medicine, 2010
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 ...

Time-lag of urinary and salivary cortisol response after a psychological stressor in bonobos (Pan paniscus)

Scientific Reports, 2021
Cortisol is often measured as a marker for stress. Therefore, a profound validation of the time-lag between the stressor and the increase and peak in cortisol levels is needed.

Familial longevity is marked by lower diurnal salivary cortisol levels: the leiden longevity study [PDF]

, 2012
Background Reported findings are inconsistent whether hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) signaling becomes hyperactive with increasing age, resulting in increasing levels of cortisol.
