Abstract
Salivary nitric oxide level and total antioxidant activity in saliva samples collected by different techniques
Highlights
Ideal biomarkers have the ability to identify a physiological disorder with a high degree of accuracy [1]
This study was approved by the Ethics Committee in Human Research (CEP) of the Federal University of Uberlândia
Nitric oxide concentration did not show significant difference (p > 0.05) independent of the method used for stimulated saliva collection
Summary
Ideal biomarkers have the ability to identify a physiological disorder with a high degree of accuracy [1]. Methods This study was approved by the Ethics Committee in Human Research (CEP) of the Federal University of Uberlândia. Saliva samples from 10 healthy subjects were collected by unstimulated methods, with and without saliva accumulation in the mouth, and stimulated methods using Salivette®, Parafilm® and chewing gum with mint flavor.
