  • ANALYSIS OF SALIVA PROTEOME FOR BIOMARKERS OF GINGIVITIS AND PERIODONTITIS USING FT-ICR-MS/MS
    Publication number: 20150219665
    Abstract: Methods for diagnosing the status of periodontitis disease includes selecting a set of protein biomarkers including one or more biomarkers which have been shown to vary in abundance at particular stages of periodontitis. The set of protein biomarkers may be identified and quantified in expression in an acquired gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) or saliva oral fluid sample in order to distinguish between different states of periodontitis. Methods of diagnosing the status of periodontitis oral disease at varying levels of severity, e.g. gingivitis, mild periodontitis, or severe periodontitis, may include selecting a set of protein biomarkers which are capable distinguishing between different stages of periodontitis.
