The aim is to develop a sensitive method for saliva identification using the ‘Determiner L P-AMY G2’.
Utilized the α-amylase isozyme kit ‘Determiner L P-AMY G2’
Calculated the ratio of salivary-type α-amylase to total α-amylase (RS value)
Tested effectiveness in differentiating saliva from other bodily fluids
Successfully distinguished saliva from fluids like blood and semen using an RS value of 0.950
Enabled detection of saliva even when diluted 10,000-fold
Demonstrated higher sensitivity compared to existing methods
