Steroid hormones

Steroid hormones, for instance Testosterone, Estrogen, Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and Cortisol, measured with traditional enzymatic tests, such as Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA).

In RADAR Young, saliva was collected in a tube to assess the Cortisol Awakening Response. Saliva samples were collected by passive drooling, immediately after awakening (Cort0), 30 min (Cort30) and 60 min (Cort60) later. Area Under the Curve-ground and Area Under the Curve-increase were assessed.
