Salimetrics offers new saliva collection aid

Collection of whole saliva samples is now easier with the introduction of the Saliva Collection Aid, a device developed by SalivaBio, LLC in collaboration with the Center for Interdisciplinary Salivary Bioscience Research at Johns Hopkins University. The new collection aid is now available from Salimetrics Europe.

Whole saliva, a mixture of the oral fluids that pool on the floor of the mouth, is considered by many researchers to be the gold standard when collecting saliva samples for biological testing. Although collecting whole saliva by spitting or drooling might seem to be easy, it actually can be a messy task that discourages some people from donating samples. The new device has a number of features that make it attractive to researchers and saliva donors:

•    Simple and easy to use

•    Individually packaged in a clean, foil pouch

•    One-time use and dispose

•    Ready-to-go instructions

•    Vented design helps avoid sample foaming

•    Constructed of polypropylene to avoid sample retention or contamination

•    Universal fit with common external thread cryovials

•    Allows sample collection directly into cryovials in the field
