  • Title: [Methodical approaches to the determination of steroid hormone levels in different biological fluids in children with congenital dysfunction of the adrenal cortex].
    Author: Fofanova OV, Pankova SS, Kolesnikova GS.
    Journal: Pediatriia; 1989; (11):72-5. PubMed ID: 2608377.
    Abstract:
    The paper treats of the data on the use of radioimmunoassays for the measurement of steroid hormone content (17-hydroxyprogesterone, testosterone) in blood serum and saliva of children with congenital adrenocortical dysfunction. It is confirmed that these hormones can be detected in saliva only with the aid of highly sensitive and highly specific RIA systems. A positive correlation has been established between hormonal levels in both biological fluids.
