Abstract
Salivary malondialdehyde as an oxidative stress biomarker in oral and systemic diseases.
Highlights
O xidative stress is the imbalance between oxidative status and the antioxidant levels in the biological system
A number of biomarkers are routinely used in clinical investigations to measure this imbalance, including malondialdehyde (MDA), F2-isoprostanes, vitamins A, C and E, carotenes, retinol, lipid hydroperoxides, protein carbonyl, total thiol, total antioxidant capacity, etc
Wang et al[1] correctly emphasized the low reproducibility of the analytical methods used for quantification of oxidative stress biomarkers in saliva and guidelines were provided for a qualified practice on saliva collection, processing, storage and analysis
