Specibio Human Saliva, Single Donor, gender unspecified. Pack size: 5 ml.
Human saliva provides an oral biofluid matrix for non-invasive biomarker and analytical-method research.
It can be evaluated for salivary protein and metabolite assays and sample-preparation development.
Single-donor material supports investigation of individual donor characteristics.
Collection method, stimulation status and preservatives can affect results and should be confirmed for each lot.
For research use only. Not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
Specifications: The fluid is collected from donors in an FDA-approved or similar certified collection center.
Please note that this product does not allow for donor requests off-the-shelf, but custom specified lots to your exact specifications can be made available upon requests. Contact us for details & pricing.
Application: • Salivary biomarker and immunoassay development.
• Exploratory oral-fluid proteomics and metabolomics.
• Nucleic-acid extraction studies after sample-integrity assessment.
• Saliva-based sensor and matrix-interference evaluation.
• Suitability must be verified for the specific assay and lot.
Viral Testing: The product is tested for the standard FDA-required viral markers, and found negative for HBsAg, HCV, HIV-1/HIV-2 Antigen Antibody Combo, and Anti‑T.
