Salivary diagnostics

Salivary diagnostics

Salivary diagnostics or Salivaomics is a new procedure for testing and maintaining the data for diagnostic purpose. A new concept, Salivaomics Knowledge Base (SKB), an in silico (i.e., performed on computer or via computer simulation) saliva diagnostic atlas, is launching today 04/05/2008 during the 37th Annual Meeting of the American Association for Dental Research in Dallas, Texas.

With people increasingly adopting a ‘digital life’, the SKB will serve as a catalyst for future development and expansion of salivary diagnostics. For over three years, saliva has shown genuine promise as a diagnostic tool for oral cancer detection. As a result, the scientific community and general public have developed a keen interest in its value.
