Download or read book Saliva in Health and Disease written by Asta Tvarijonaviciute and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-04-09 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saliva as a unique sample for health assessment is gaining attention among researchers of different fields in the last 20 years; being reflected in an impressive increase in the number of papers published studying saliva from different biological aspects in human and veterinary species. Once deemed merely a digestive juice is now considered a biological fluid capable of communicating information about physiopathological processes occurring in organisms, since saliva has been shown to contain molecular and bacterial compounds that can change in response to local and systemic pathologies. Furthermore, the interest of saliva as a diagnostic, prognostic and monitoring biofluid is forced by its non-invasive nature being of easy and inexpensive sampling, involving only minimal discomfort and allowing the collection of multiple/repeated specimens at anytime, anywhere and without need for specialized staff. In this contributed volume, the authors bring together, summarize and reflect the generated knowledge about saliva as a source of biomarkers for health and welfare evaluation in humans and animal models. This volume also highlights the importance of confounding factors, such as sampling methods, flow, total protein content, contamination, or storage. This book will serve as a manual for graduates, practitioners and researchers by providing general ideas about the possibilities and utilities of saliva in clinical practice or investigation, and indicating the main cautions each should have in mind before saliva usage.

Download or read book Salivary Diagnostics written by Shruti Gupta and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since ages body fluids routinely used for diagnostic purposes are blood, urine, tears and cerebral spinal fluid but these fluids require more invasive collection procedures, potentially causing discomfort and stress to the patient during procurement. Since 2002, the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) created opportunities to overpower these limitations by investigating oral fluids as a diagnostic tool for assessment of health and disease status. In the past 50 years salivary research has picked up the pace with the dawn of new techniques that illuminated the biochemical and physicochemical properties of saliva embracing the multifunctional roles that saliva has in speech, lubrication, digestion of food and maintaining oral and general health.There is an opportunity of enhancing research conducted in the field and expanding the adaptability of using saliva as the diagnostic fluid in point of care diagnostics.

This book was released on 2021-01-26 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis of many systemic diseases (cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome and cancer) and oral disorders (periodontal disease, oral lichen planus and oral cancer). The use of saliva as a diagnostic fluid has past, present and especially future. Saliva is considered the first line of defence against oxidative stress, being the first biological fluid that comes into contact with the external environment. The present book focuses on the assessment of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of two oral pathologies, periodontal disease and oral lichen planus, reflecting the potential of saliva as a diagnosis and monitoring fluid, as it provides an ideal environment in which to study the biochemical mechanisms of ROS-mediated tissue damage and of antioxidant defence in response to different diseases. Through their experience in the field, the authors provide insights about this remarkable fluid that represents one of the top priority biomedical research topics of the 21st century.
Download or read book Saliva a Diagnostic Tool written by Sowbhagya Natraj and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is saliva important? Secretion is a reflex response controlled by both parasympathetic and sympathetic secretomotor nerves. It is "specimen of choice" & offers a cost-effective approach for the screening of large populations. Barriers to salivary diagnostics includes 1) Associated with research, 2) With product development, 3) With third party acceptance and associated legal issues. Whole saliva can be collected in a non-invasive manner by individuals with modest training, including patients. It is useful in the monitoring of therapeutic drug levels and the detection of illicit drug use. Salivary diagnosis provides an attractive alternative to more invasive, time-consuming, complicated and expensive diagnostic approaches. With the continued advancement in technology and biomedical science, the day is not far when saliva would become the "mirror" and monitor of body's health.

Book excerpt: This monograph equips clinicians with the knowledge required to detect oral cancer at the earliest possible stage while simultaneously inspiring researchers to work on novel methods of detection. All the methods employed in the oral cancer context are considered, from simple ones like oral screening to more complex emerging optical methods and biomarker identification strategies. Individual chapters focus on conventional oral screening and application of vital stains, optical methods like white light based fluorescence-reflectance imaging, narrow band imaging, direct-oral-microscopy, and more advanced methods like optical coherence tomography, an in-vivo optical biopsy technique, and photo-acoustic imaging that allows visualization of deeper tissue changes. Novel electrical methods like bio-impedance assessment, occult biophysical methods like crystallization test, and the most promising salivary biomarkers and point-of-care opportunities are covered. Helpful information is also provided on essential topics including, oral potentially malignant disorders, biological aspects and molecular mechanisms underlying oral cancer progression, global epidemiology, concept of diagnostic delays, traditional imaging, and classic histopathology and microscopic features. The newer techniques are currently of active research interest, and can soon become powerful chair-side tools with potential to reduce diagnostic delays and improve survival.
