Alterations in Oral–Nasal–Pharyngeal Microbiota and Salivary Proteins in Mouth-Breathing Children
Mouth breathing induces a series of diseases, while the influence on microbiota of oral cavity and salivary proteins remains unknown. In this study, for the first time, profiles of oral–nasal–pharyngeal microbiota among mouth-breathing children (MB group,

Hydroxyapatite Binding Domains in Salivary Proteins [PDF]
One of the functions of proteins in human saliva is to maintain a balance between calcium phosphate remineralization and demineralization. Saliva is normally supersaturated with respect to calcium phosphate phases such as hydroxyapatite (HAP) and octacalcium phosphate (OCP), but it can also be undersaturated, locally, with respect to these phases (Gron,

Colloidal stability of tannins: astringency, wine tasting and beyond [PDF]
Tannin-tannin and tannin-protein interactions in water-ethanol solvent mixtures are studied in the context of red wine tasting. While tannin self-aggregation is relevant for visual aspect of wine tasting (limpidity and related colloidal phenomena ...
