Saliva Hormone Test

Saliva Testing has been researched and validated for biological detection of Biomarker of hormones, drugs and anti-bodies for human as well as for veterinarian medicine. Saliva Testing is non invasive and painless. The greater advantage is to be able to collect saliva at any time, day or night, as well as having the convenience of being able to do it at home or at work. On the other hand, blood collection is impractical and painful to multi-sample the blood throughout the day. Yet our body hormones changes in the morning and at night, such as cortisol, it requires many collections throughout the day, it is inconvenient or impossible to do it with blood sampling. Therefore, Saliva testing is the sample of choice.

Saliva allows for specific determination of the biological active hormone known as “Free Hormone”. In blood the hormones are bound to a protein, i.e. SHBG, which makes those hormones not useable by the body. They makeup the majority 95% of the hormones that is present in the plasma or blood.

These “bound hormones” are biologically inactive and they are useless. The saliva gland is a natural filter, allowing only the unbound and free hormones to come through. Unbound hormones carry a molecular weight around six thousand (6K) and Bound and inactive hormones are at 50 to 100 thousand molecular weight. They are too large to pass through the saliva gland. Saliva samples for testing are a perfect assessment of the “active hormones” in your body.

One step further to ensure an accurate test result is that our collection and sampling containers called Sali-Cap. The special plastic in these containers does not interfere with the hormones present in the saliva samples. Researchers have shown that hormones in the saliva sample adhered to normal plastic material, for example, this is most critical with progesterone sticking to the side walls of the container making saliva sample inaccurate by up to 50%.
