Abstract: Salivary biomarker characterized as low-molecular-weight compounds named metabolites or combinations of these biomarkers are used for detecting cancers. The salivary biomarker for cancer can be, for example, a combination of creatinine, N1-acetylspermidine, ?-aminoadipic acid, N-acetylneuraminic acid, and 1,3-diaminopropane. Due to this configuration, the early detection of pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, oral cancer, and the like is possible in a healthy subject even with saliva having large concentration fluctuations.
