Özet

Non-invasive measurement of cortisol in saliva is of prime importance as it represents a bioavailable neuroendocrine marker for stress. Therefore, in this study, we developed an enzyme immune assay that was suitable for salivary cortisol measurements. For that purpose, rabbit polyclonal antibody was raised against cortisol-3-CMO:BSA conjugate. The test was based on competition of liquid phase cortisol with conjugated cortisol on the solid phase. Primary antibody was used to bind available sites on the conjugate, which was proportional to numbers of cortisol in liquid phase. Biotinylated secondary anti-rabbit antibody was used to detect primary antibodies by addition of streptavidin peroxidase and substrate, respectively. Color formation was stopped and yellow color was read by a plate-reader spectrophotometer. Additionally, validated test was used to met all validation criteria including. Test developed was used to establish cortisol awakening response (CAR) in saliva samples collected in the morning after awakening (0, 15, 30, and 60th min) from women (n = 4) and men (n = 4) at 8 or 4 different days, respectively. Diurnal cortisol levels were assessed (n = 8) at after awaking 60 min at morning, 12:00, 19:00, and 22:00 hr. In conclusion, an enzyme immunoassay test was successfully produced, validated and used for cortisol measurement in saliva samples. © 2017 Taylor & Francis.
