They studied stress hormones in sweat in collaboration with the Air Force Research Lab at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Now they are studying saliva. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are good reasons to use saliva,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It&#8217;s relatively plentiful and easy to obtain through noninvasive methods. And saliva has a lot of important elements that can act as indicators of your health.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Bacteria from gingivitis can <b> travel through the bloodstream, leading to cardiovascular disease and other serious health problems, <\/b> Steckl said. <\/p>\n<p>But saliva is a complicated biofluid, said Han, the study&#8217;s lead author. <br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n<\/p>\n<h2> Innovative Saliva-Based Test Offers Early Warning <\/h2>\n<p>Researchers pretreated the sample using potato starch to remove a protein called amylase that could interfere with the test results. Their test uses antibodies that react to the endotoxins found in the bacteria. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Daewoo worked very hard on many dead-ends before he had success,&#8221; Steckl said. &#8220;I tell my students that research is search, search and re-search until you find the answer.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>At-home health testing has been available for generations in niche uses such as detecting pregnancy. But the COVID-19 pandemic introduced a wide audience of consumers to the concept of monitoring their health with new technology. <\/p>\n<p>The at-home testing industry is <b> expected to generate $45 billion annually by 2031, according to Allied Market Research. <\/b> <\/p>\n<p>Steckl said he sees a lot of opportunity for new consumer products. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our results definitely show promise,&#8221; Steckl said. &#8220;Sometimes it comes easy. Most of the time you have to persevere.&#8221;&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Reference :<\/b><\/p>\n<ol class=\"list order-num\">&#13;<\/p>\n<li> Salivary endotoxin detection using antibody-based sandwich-type lateral flow immunoassay device&#13;<br \/>\n&#8211; <span class=\"breaktext\">(https:\/\/pubs.rsc.org\/en\/content\/articlelanding\/2023\/SD\/D3SD00158J)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Source: Eurekalert&#13;\n\t\t\t \t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medindia.net\/news\/home-test-shields-your-smile-by-spotting-tooth-decay-risks-213411-1.htm\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>said Andrew Steckl, an Ohio Eminent Scholar and distinguished research professor in UC&#8217;s College of Engineering and Applied Science. &#8220;It&#8217;s been quite the challenge to get to the point where we can detect this toxin&hellip;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"excerpt-readmore\" href=\"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/home-test-shields-your-smile-by-spotting-tooth-decay-risks\/\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":78977,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-78976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-anxiety","odd"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/ai-for-early-detection-of-gum-inflammation.jpg?fit=300%2C250&ssl=1","post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78976"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78976\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/78977"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=78976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rochellesthrezrs.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=78976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
