Emerging salivary biomarkers by mass spectrometry

Human saliva, a multi-constituent oral fluid, has a high potential for early diagnosis of disease. Proteomic analysis of saliva holds promise as a non-invasive method that is advantageous over serum. This non-invasive diagnostic method represents developing trends in analytical and clinical chemistry. Significant technological advances in the field of proteomics during the last two decades have greatly facilitated the research toward this...
