Description:
Unstimulated whole saliva samples will be collected using Salivette® saliva collection swabs (Sarstedt, Germany) from all participants. After centrifugation, the supernatant (clear fluid portion) will be separated and transferred into sterile Eppendorf tubes. These saliva supernatant samples will be stored at -80°C and retained for the analysis of proteins (E-cadherin, Calprotectin, and MMP-9) using ELISA. No DNA will be extracted or used from the samples.
