    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for correlating a biomarker in a non-blood bodily fluid with the same biomarker in the blood of an individual, including: measuring, in a first period in time, the biomarker in non-blood bodily fluid and measuring the same biomarker in the blood of the same individual to establish an R ratio of [NBBF1]/[BB1], where [NBBF1] is the biomarker concentration in non-blood bodily fluid in the first period in time, and [BB1] is the biomarker concentration in the blood in the first period in time; storing the ratio in a memory; measuring, in a second period in time, the biomarker in non-blood bodily fluid to determine [NBBF2], where [NBBF2] is the biomarker concentration in the non-blood bodily fluid in the second period in time; and correlating the measured [NBBF2] with the R ratio to generate a correlated [BB2] biomarker concentration in the blood of the individual in the second period in time. Also disclosed is a device, apparatus, and method for correlating the glucose concentration in a non-blood bodily fluid such as saliva with the glucose in the blood of an individual.

    Abstract: Provided herein is a method and device for partitioning a fluidic sample. The device contains a plate containing microwells. The method comprises depositing a sample on one or both of the plates when the plates are in an open configuration, wherein the deposition is in the form of a single or multiple droplet of the sample, wherein at least one of the droplets has a volume that occupies more than two microwells and closing the plates to the closed configuration to partition the sample in the microwells.
