Quantifying blood leakage into the oral mucosa and its effects on the measurement of cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone, and testosterone in saliva.

Abstract:

:The impact of blood leakage due to microinjury to the oral cavity on the measurement of salivary hormones was examined. Saliva samples were collected before, immediately after, and then every 15 min for 1 h following vigorous tooth brushing. Blood in saliva was quantified by visual inspection of discoloration, Hemastix reagent strips to detect hemoglobin, and an immunoassay for transferrin. The presence of blood in saliva immediately after microinjury was confirmed by all methods. Hemoglobin and transferrin levels remained elevated over baseline for at least 30 min. Levels of salivary testosterone increased over baseline and remained elevated for 30 min in response to microinjury. Microinjury induced change in salivary testosterone was more closely associated with the change in transferrin than hemoglobin levels or discoloration ratings. On average, levels of salivary dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) did not increase in response to microinjury. However, individual differences in microinjury induced change in DHEA were associated with discoloration ratings. Salivary cortisol levels, on average, were neither responsive to microinjury, nor were individual differences in cortisol change associated with blood contamination measures. Neither diurnal nor gender-related differences in baseline hormone levels predicted the impact of blood leakage on quantitative salivary measurements. The findings suggest ecologically valid minor-to-moderate level microinjuries to the oral cavity have negligible effects on the measurement of salivary cortisol, but may be important to quantify and control when assessing other hormones especially testosterone.

  • Is preference for ovulatory female's faces associated with men's testosterone levels?
