Consistent Detection of 2019 Novel Coronavirus in Saliva
The 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) was detected in the self-collected saliva of 91.7% (11/12) of patients. Serial saliva viral load monitoring generally showed a declining trend. Live virus was detected in saliva by viral culture.

Rheological properties of saliva substitutes containing mucin, carboxymethylcellulose or polyethylenoxide [PDF]
Apparent viscosities at different shear rates were measured for 3 types of saliva substitutes: (a) mucin-containing saliva; (b) substitutes based upon carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and (c) solution of polyethylenoxide (PEO). The apparent viscosities were

DNA Methylation Changes in Human Papillomavirus-Driven Head and Neck Cancers
Disruption of DNA methylation patterns is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Similar to other cancer types, human papillomavirus (HPV)-driven head and neck cancer (HNC) also reveals alterations in its methylation profile.

Salivary micro RNAs as biomarkers for oropharyngeal cancer
Background Despite the rising incidence, particularly of the human papillomavirus (HPV)‐associated fraction of oropharyngeal cancer (OPC), there are no early detection methods for OPC.
