The Journal of the American Dental Association, 2022 Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death, and early detection of this disease is crucial for increasing survival rates. Although cancer can be diagnosed following tissue biopsy, the biopsy procedure is invasive; liquid biopsy provides an alternative that is more comfortable for the patient.

Dispersion of Free-Falling Saliva Droplets by Two-Dimensional Vortical Flows [PDF]
Theoretical and Computational Fluid Dynamics, 36(6), 993-1011
(2022), 2022 The dispersion of respiratory saliva droplets by indoor wake structures may enhance the transmission of various infectious diseases, as the wake spreads virus-laden droplets across the room. Thus, this study analyses the interaction between vortical wake structures and exhaled multi-component saliva droplets.

Rheological properties of saliva substitutes containing mucin, carboxymethylcellulose or polyethylenoxide [PDF]
, 1984 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
Cells, 2020 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.

The salivary metatranscriptome as an accurate diagnostic indicator of oral cancer
npj Genomic Medicine, 2021 Despite advances in cancer treatment, the 5-year mortality rate for oral cancers (OC) is 40%, mainly due to the lack of early diagnostics. To advance early diagnostics for high-risk and average-risk populations, we developed and evaluated machine ...
