Human saliva is a complex, aqueous solution primarily composed of water, electrolytes, mucus, enzymes, and antimicrobial agents. It plays a crucial role in digestion, oral health, and maintaining the balance of oral microbiota. The pH of saliva usually ranges from 6.2 to 7.6, making it slightly acidic to neutral, which helps in breaking down food and protecting teeth from decay. Additionally, the enzymes in saliva, such as amylase, begin the digestion of carbohydrates.

How do you make human saliva in the lab?
Human saliva can be collected from volunteers for research purposes by asking them to spit into a sterile container. Alternatively, artificial saliva can be made by mixing components like water, mucin, electrolytes, and enzymes in specific concentrations to mimic natural saliva. This artificial saliva can be used for studies on oral health or drug delivery.
