Abstract

In 28 young, healthy individuals the quantity of salivary peroxidase was determined with the aim of evaluating normal ranges for salivary peroxidase, to determine whether any differences in SP values between unstimulated and stimulated whole saliva exist and to find any possible differences between sexes.
We can conclude that no statistically significant differences between salivary peroxidase values in unstimulated and stimulated whole saliva were found. No statistically significant differences were found between female and male individuals in salivary peroxidase values, either in unstimulated or stimulated whole saliva.
