Cortisone [Moles/volume] in Saliva (oral fluid) --PM trough specimen
Cortisone PM Sal-sCnc
Definition
- Identifies an evening specimen when cortisone is at its lowest point in a circadian cycle -often considered to be midnight. Some laboratories will call this "12AM (midnight)" specimen, but specimens in the range of 11PM to 1AM are acceptable. The trough time may have to be adjusted for patients on different work shifts because their circadian rhythms can shift with their sleeping time.
