Saliva samples were collected from children at 5 years of age using Salivette saliva collection swabs (Sarstedt AG & Co, Nümbrecht, Germany). After the child rinsed his or her mouth with water, Salivette cotton plugs were gently tipped into the mouth to prevent contact with the examiner’s or child’s hands. Children were encouraged to hold the cotton plug in their mouths for up to five minutes to promote maximal saliva absorption and to obtain a representative oral sample, at which point they were instructed to spit the plug back into the Salivette tube. Salivette samples were stored at −20°C until transfer to long-term storage at −80°C.
Salivette saliva collection swabs
The Salivette saliva collection swabs are designed to collect and store saliva samples. The swabs are made of cotton and are used to absorb and contain saliva, which can then be analyzed for various purposes, such as medical or research applications.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
