Abstract

Aim: To evaluate the relationship between cortisol concentrations (ng/ml) with body temperature, digital thermometer and thermal infrared gun (˚C). Infrared Thermography is a new and revolutionary way of measuring body temperature.

Methodology: In this study data is collected about 65 individuals and extract blood samples from 50 students (25 males and 25 females).

Results: Non-significant negative correlation was observed between cortisol concentrations (ng/ml) with body temperature of IRT of right eye-maximum (CC = -0.100; P = 0.490). Non-significant negative correlation was observed between cortisol concentrations (ng/ml) with body temperature of IRT of left eye-maximum (CC= -0.099; P = 0.495). Non-significant negative correlation was observed between cortisol concentrations (ng/ml) with body temperature of IRT of forehead-maximum (CC = -0.124; P = 0.413). A non-significant negative correlation is also observed between cortisol concentration (ng/ml) with body temperature of IRT of mean of left eye, thermal infrared gun and digital thermometer (˚C).

Conclusion: Overall non-significant negative correlation is also observed between various concentrations with body temperature.

Keywords: IRT, Cortisol, Body temperature, Digital thermal temperature, Infrared gun temperature
